The Pennsylvania Commission for Women is seeking statewide nominations for its sixth Female Veterans Day Ceremony as part of Women’s History Month in March 2022.
On Veterans Day, Governor Wolf recognized Pennsylvania’s over 800,000 veterans and their families, whose service can never be fully repaid.
Gov. Wolf and Maj. Gen. Mark Schindler, Pennsylvanian’s Adjutant General and head of the Dept. of Military and Veterans Affairs, called for the General Assembly to review, update, and pass a package of legislation aimed at improving the lives of the commonwealth’s nearly 800,000 veterans.
Gov. Wolf applauded proposed legislation that will establish policies and programs to ensure that veteran-owned businesses continue to receive support and opportunities in state contracting.
Gov. Wolf announced that 9 Pennsylvania county Veterans Affairs offices and 20 charitable or veteran service organizations will receive grants from the Veterans’ Trust Fund.
