About the MVCC

Connect Anytime

Maine Veterans in Need, MVN, is part of the larger statewide Maine Veterans Coordinating Committee, MVCC.  

We meet the first Monday of each month at 3:00 PM via ZOOM.  In June and October, we meet in person at locations of interest to the members.  While there are official members of the MVCC, all Veterans are welcome to attend.

The MVCC Mission

The Mission of the Maine Veterans Coordinating Committee (MVCC) is to function as a platform to share pertinent information across the veteran community including Congressional Delegation, Federal, State and local veteran’s organizations.

Why MVCC

Many veterans rely on the VA for their benefits, both financially and for health care.  Understanding what is happening with our Maine VA enables the veteran to make the most of the VA services.  The State of Maine provides a number of services for veterans and the MVCC provides the opportunity to understand those benefits.  At the same time, veterans have the ability to provide feedback on issues that are important to veterans.  

The MVCC also provides the opportunity to tell our Congressional Delegation what legislative issues are important to veterans.  Maine is fortunate to have this open dialogue between the VA, State, veteran organizations, and the veterans themselves.
