§ 30-17.1-8. Legislative findings.
The general assembly hereby finds that there is a gap in resources and information necessary to effectively support and address the needs of veterans and our state agencies must work together more effectively to collaborate, coordinate, leverage, and ultimately enhance existing state, federal, and private veterans’ services to meet and exceed the needs and expectations of Rhode Island’s veterans and their families.
