WASHINGTON (KFGO/KVRR) — Work is underway in Congress and Bismarck to add a second Veterans Home in North Dakota.
Sen. John Hoeven is working with the VA and Gov. Kelly Armstrong for an assessment and study for a second veterans’ home in the northwest part of the state. North Dakota’s only Veterans Home is in Lisbon.
“We are now working with the VA on an assessment and to look at another veterans’ home in that part of the state… we’ve embarked on the study that’s required, the needs assessment, but would want your help and support,” Hoeven told VA Secretary Doug Collins.
Collins says he agrees that a second veterans’ home is needed due to our aging population.
