Onondaga County Veterans Service Agency
Dear Onondaga County Veteran:
Your service to our country as a member of the Armed Forces of the United States, whether in a time of relative peace or in time of war, demonstrates your personal commitment to the preservation of our American way of life.
Since 1921, our O n o n d a g a County Veterans Service Agency has honored that commitment by maintaining a staff of Service Officers who are trained to help you and your family members access all the benefits to which you are entitled.
Service to our Veterans is one of my highest priorities as County Executive. Thanks to the guidance and recommendations of the Veterans Service Advisory Board composed of Veterans such as you, our services are continuously reviewed, updated and improved.
This Veterans Services Directory is produced with you in mind, and we invite and encourage you to take full advantage of the services and programming listed.
On behalf of everyone in Onondaga County, I wish to express my gratitude to you and every individual in our community who has answered the Nation’s call to duty.
Sincerely,
Joanne M. Mahoney County Executive
