Retreat for women vets to be held at MCC-Penn Valley

The U.S. Department of Labor Women's Bureau will sponsor a mini-retreat and stand down for women veterans on October 23 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at MCC-Penn Valley. The event will offer free services such as: explanation of benefits and services by the Veteran's Administration; job search assistance; legal services, chair massages, clothing boutique, transportation and health screenings.

Continental breakfast, lunch and child care will also be available.

Congressman Emanuel Cleaver is also scheduled to be on hand for this first-ever event.

The stand down is designed to prevent homelessness among women veterans by providing access to information, resources and services.

The free event is open to all women who served in the military, in any branch and in any capacity and area supporters. Veterans and community supporters can register for this event by contacting Carla Tillmon at 816.285.7234 or by visiting www.kcwomenveterans.wordpress.com.
