Scotch Plains Public Library to Host VA Claims Clinic

As part of the World War I and America series, the Scotch Plains Public Library will host many interesting lectures, discussions, and films in the months of October and November. The series commemorates the centennial of American involvement in World War One and explores the ongoing experience of veterans who have served in our lifetimes.

In an effort to further support today’s veterans, Lillie Nuble, Director of the Department of Veterans Affairs in Newark, will be at the Scotch Plains Public Library on Monday, October 30 from 10 am-2 pm to discuss VA benefits including compensation, pension, vocational rehabilitation, employment, and education benefits.
