Westminster, MD, Thursday,
February 1, 2018 – The
Board of County Commissioners (BCC) recognized two Carroll County Government
employees today for their dedication and commitment to coordinating the
county’s first Veterans Provider Forum.
Gina
Valentine, Aging & Disabilities Supervisor and Leslie Wagner, Special
Projects Coordinator were acknowledged for being instrumental in coordinating the
Provider Forum for Veteran Services held on Friday, January 26, 2018. Ms. Valentine and Ms. Wagner were given
Certificates of Appreciation for their dedication to Veterans and their creativity
and collaborative approach in creating a first time event which far exceeded
anticipated participation.
The
event, which attracted over 200 participants and agencies, provided information
and the opportunity to connect Veterans and their families and service
providers to available resources. Additionally, the event partnered with AARP Maryland
to provide a special ceremony celebrating over 70 Vietnam War Era Veterans.
The
recognition ceremony is available by viewing Open Session today on the county
meeting portal. The Open Session will be
rebroadcast on Comcast Channel 24 this evening at 7:30 PM.
