An Act for Providers across Multiple Sectors To Inquire of Clients and Customers about Former Military Service
 
CONCEPT DRAFT SUMMARY
This bill is a concept draft pursuant to Joint Rule 208.
This bill proposes that the Department of Health and Human Services conduct an effort similar to the effort conducted by the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services to coordinate public and private service providers in the areas of aging and senior services, children’s services and school systems, employment and vocational services, faith-based groups and health care and medical services to inquire about former military service of clients and customers to identify veterans and direct them and their families to resources and benefits of which the veterans may not be aware or are reluctant to receive.
