ALLENTOWN, Dec. 13 – Area veterans, who may not be aware of the services or benefits available to them or their families, are encouraged to participate in state Rep. Peter Schweyer’s monthly support program at his district office in Allentown.

A representative from the American Legion will be available for in-person appointments from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday, Dec. 17 at Schweyer’s district office, 1501 Lehigh St., Suite 206. The representative will be able to discuss pensions and other compensation, as well as education, health care and death benefits. The representative is available for appointments on the third Friday of every month.

“There are many programs and benefits that veterans are entitled to for their service to their country that many don’t know about,” Schweyer said. “I am pleased to be able to offer this outreach every month to provide guidance and assistance with applying to these programs and services.”

Legion membership is not required; however, anyone interested in speaking with the adviser should schedule appointments by contacting Schweyer’s office at 610-791-6270. Masks are required and CDC guidelines must be followed during the appointment.
