The program will feature remarks from Congressman Seth Moulton, a Marine Corps veteran and Eric Goralnick, the newly appointed Secretary of the Massachusetts Executive Office of Veterans Services. The keynote address will be delivered by Harvey Weiner, a Vietnam veteran and attorney who has long been an advocate for veterans and their families.  

The new secretary will be there, and this is a great opportunity for a meet and greet. Also, would you share the attached flyer with your Marblehead network?

Veteran Research Study

Town of North Andover, MA

Hello,

My name is Taylor Goulbourne, and I am part of a research team conducting a study examining how gambling may affect Massachusetts Veterans’ well-being and resilience.

I am writing to ask if you would be willing to share information about this research study with the Veterans you serve as Veterans Service Officer.

Attached is a print and social media flyer, along with a link to a brief screening survey for individuals who would like to learn more about the project and determine their eligibility:
https://survey.alchemer.com/s3/8619917/veteran 

While the study is about gambling, all levels and types of gambling count. Participation involves a one-time, confidential interview conducted virtually or in-person, based on preference. Interviewees will receive $50 for their participation.

If you are willing, the flyer and link may be disseminated through your existing communication channels (e.g., listservs, newsletters, or resource pages).

Thank you for your time and for the work you do in support of Massachusetts Veterans.

Kind regards,

Taylor Goulbourne
