WASHINGTON, DC \u2013 Una ganadera y defensora de los veteranos de Oreg\u00f3n Central testific\u00f3 hoy ante el Subcomit\u00e9 de Asignaciones de Agricultura del Senado despu\u00e9s de que el Senador de Oreg\u00f3n Jeff Merkley la invitara a compartir su historia y servir como testigo sobre las oportunidades para los veteranos en la agricultura. Merkley se desempe\u00f1a como el principal dem\u00f3crata en el Subcomit\u00e9 de Asignaciones de Agricultura del Senado.<\/p>\n
Alison Perry es la fundadora de Central Oregon Veterans Ranch, que brinda a los veteranos oportunidades de voluntariado en un rancho en funcionamiento para ayudarlos a sanar en un entorno al aire libre orientado a la comunidad y para aprender habilidades en agricultura sostenible. Perry se desempe\u00f1\u00f3 anteriormente como consejero del Departamento de Asuntos de Veteranos de EE. UU. en Portland y Bend. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cNuestros veteranos nos han defendido y nosotros debemos defenderlos\u201d, dijo Merkley. \u201cCon miles de veteranos que regresan a casa ahora de despliegues en el extranjero, debemos asegurarnos de que obtengan el apoyo y las oportunidades laborales que merecen en casa. Las oportunidades agr\u00edcolas son ideales para muchos veteranos, como lo demuestra el rancho de veteranos de Central Oregon todos los d\u00edas. Agradezco a Alison Perry por su tremendo servicio a los veteranos de Oreg\u00f3n y por compartir su experiencia con nuestro subcomit\u00e9 hoy\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cEs una oportunidad incre\u00edble venir a compartir c\u00f3mo Central Oregon es uno de los pioneros en el establecimiento de medios innovadores para brindar atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica y aumentar las oportunidades para los veteranos\u201d, dijo Perry.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
