Alabama is fortunate to be home to more than 300,000 veterans and their families. From Redstone Arsenal and the Anniston Army Depot, to Maxwell Air Force Base, Fort Rucker and our Coast Guard in Mobile—countless active duty service members and their loved ones have called Alabama home for a few short years and many decide to make Alabama their permanent home after answering the call to service.

We owe our veterans a debt of gratitude and make a commitment to care for them in return. There are many programs and resources available to our veterans across Alabama, but I know it can sometimes be overwhelming to figure out what resources are available and how to access them.

That’s why I will be hosting a veterans resource fair and town hall in Birmingham on Monday, November 25. This community forum will be an opportunity for veterans and their families to learn more about services offered in Alabama. The resource fair will feature various non-profits and government agencies that will share information and opportunities available for veterans. Afterward, we will hear from veterans—from all walks of life and branches of service—at my town hall about their service experience and transition into civilian life.
