Published: Nov. 10, 2020, 1 a.m.

LLN (11/9/20) – It’s day 1 of the 2020 OOIDA Truckers for Troops campaign – the Association’s annual effort to raise money to send care packages to troops overseas, and now to help homeless veterans by supporting the Veterans Community Project. Also, one of the founders of the Veterans Community Project, Vincent Morales, explains a few of the basics about the project. And something that sets the Veterans Community Project apart is that most of the people who run it are veterans themselves. Glenda Hernandez talks about what the program has meant to her – and her current role in helping veterans adjust to coming home.
