Discussed need for supplies for indigent/homeless vets using garden. Veterans Court: Larry gave report program going well. Judge Mills is retiring, and Judge Dalton is running for reelection. Gaining new mentors and approximately 20 vets now in program. CBOC Harry reported that work is progressing plan to open facilities next spring. Stand Down Andy reported things went well. Unofficial stats about 108 vets attended vs 119 in September. Homeless up from 13 in Sept to 25. One reason may be Seattle is doing street sweeps.

37 November. 2. Outreach Committee Andrew reported he had a meeting with MOOA and they are interested in working on our outreach. VAB does not have a formal outreach program. This is one area where it could improve our services. Discussion followed, and a motion duly made and seconded to establish an Outreach Committed. Following discussion, the motion passed. Discussion about target indigent vets vs vets took place. Issue was could the VAB outreach to other than indigent vets. Andrew recommended the target be all veterans. If more veterans know about the services, then the word will reach those who are indigent. He has received a number of calls from veterans who were calling for indigent veterans who did not have computer or internet connections. Consensus was we should target all veterans as this process will not utilize funds which are restricted by law to only indigent veterans and this appears to be the best way to reach the indigent veterans. Daniel Jose agreed to head up committee and will report to board next month. Good of the Order/Announcements: Next meeting will be at the Harrison Hospital - Silverdale WA in the Iris Room at 5:30 pm on June 13, ADJOURNMENT: Meeting adjourned at 7:30 PM.
