Veteran Services
The priority of the Veterans' Services Office is to aid and assist all veterans, their widows or spouses, and/or their dependent children, in the Town of Reading through the Massachusetts Department of Veterans Services, with short or long term medical assistance, financial aid, assistance with state applications for veterans' benefits, and administration of veteran's benefits provided by the U.S. Department of Veterans' Affairs.
Our mission is to support the veterans residing in Reading by identifying veterans and their families in need of service and providing information and access to the services for which they are eligible under the law.
