Smith County officials met with about a dozen
residents June 12, 2018, at the first Citizens and Veterans Outreach Meetings.
Smith County Precinct 4 Commissioner JoAnn Hampton introduced
the initiative, as well as the Smith County Veteran Services Officers, during
the meeting held at the Smith County R.B. Hubbard Facility, “The Hub.” Smith County Veteran Services Officer Mike Roark and
Assistant Veteran Services Officer Catherine Thomas talked to the group about
the services and resources their office provides to local veterans and their
families.
“I think we did a really great job explaining the
resources we can provide as a county to our veterans,” Commissioner Hampton
said. “While there was a good turnout at our first meeting Tuesday, we would
like to see even more people show up at our future meetings.”
