To Honor all Those who Serve and Celebrate Veterans DayCalifornia is home to the largest number of veterans in the US – nearly 1.9 million – with more National Guard, Reservists, and military installations than any other state as well.  Our California Court system also sees large numbers of veterans and active duty service members and their families, but social work practice, policy, and planning for some of their unique needs hasn’t always kept up.Join us to learn about innovative programming serving our newest and oldest veterans that is transcending systems and disciplines. Parking will be provided for those who RSVP by Monday, November 9th. Panel: 7:00-9:00pmReception to follow in the Commons – please join us!RSVP: https://newfrontiersforveterans.eventbrite.com Host:Laura Alongi, LCSW ‘92Field Education FacultyUCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs, Department of Social Welfare Moderator:Kathleen M.
