The purpose of the Napa County Veterans' Commission ("the Veterans' Commission") is to serve as an advocate for people who have served in the Military ("Veterans") and their families by helping them to maintain a good quality of life and to remain independent by increasing awareness of the issues facing Veterans in Napa County and by influencing public policy through regular reports to the Board of Supervisors. The Commission shall educate and raise awareness of the public, county staff and the County Board of Supervisors regarding issues affecting Veterans and their families, including, but not limited to Veterans' physical and mental health, transportation, benefits, and ways to generally improve the lives of Veterans. Further, the Veterans' Commission will make recommendations to the Board of Supervisor's Legislative Subcommittee regarding needed changes in State law for incorporation into the County's legislative platform.
