Title:

Authorizing City Council's Committee on the Disabled and the Handicapped to hold hearings to investigate and determine how many disabled and/ or handicapped veterans, especially Iraq and Afghanistan War veterans, are living in the Delaware Valley, and Philadelphia in particular; to identify and determine how best to assist these veterans in the receipt of needed medical and/or rehabilitative care; and to further determine ways that we can help the disabled war veteran get back into the mainstream of society; and determine whether or not these disabled veterans would seek to have the Delaware Valley certified by the United States Congress as a Regional Rehabilitation Hub with a rehabilitation medical facility in the Delaware Valley as a means to facilitate the rapid recovery of our service disabled veterans.
