VA Seeks Older Vet's Input

Week of June 25, 2012

Anica Pless Kaiser, coordinator of Boston VA's SHARP, is asking older combat veterans and former WACS, WAVES, WASPS, SPARS and women Marines to participate in a 20-minute telephone interview and fill out written questionnaires by mail. She and her colleagues are seeking information about older veterans' military and civilian life experiences, retirement concerns, health and well-being, support received from friends and loved ones, and everyday happenings. The written portion of the survey should take between an hour and 90 minutes to complete. Participants will be paid $20. To volunteer for the SHARP survey of older combat and women veterans, call Anica Pless Kaiser at (800) 865-3384, ext. 45309.
