Pickett Announces January Office, Veterans Service Hours

Residents who may be in need of forms, applications or information about state programs and services can obtain them from either of Rep. Tina Pickett’s (Bradford/Sullivan/Susquehanna) satellite office locations during specialized hours during the month of January, she announced today.

January will undoubtedly bring snow and icy weather to our region, and for residents who may need help with state-related programs or services, I have scheduled office hours in Susquehanna and Sullivan counties for greater convenience,” Pickett said.

For the month of January, staff will be available at the Sullivan County Commissioners Office in the courthouse on the third Wednesday, Jan. 17, from 1:30-3:30 p.m.

In Susquehanna County, staff will be stationed at Heft’s Buy and Sell in Lawton on the second and fourth Wednesdays, Jan. 10 and Jan. 24, from 10 a.m. to noon.

At the Sayre district office, Dan Falls from the American Legion can help veterans navigate the complexities of government programs and services designed for them. Specifically, he can help veterans and their family members with compensation, pension, death benefits, education and health care, as well as any issues pertaining to benefits.

Falls will be at the Sayre office on the third Thursday, Jan. 18, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Veterans do not need to be a member of the American Legion to receive these services, and appointments can be made by calling Pickett’s Sayre office at (570) 888-9011.

Pickett’s full-time offices are located at 321 Main St., Towanda, phone (570) 265-3124, and 106 W. Packer Ave., Sayre, phone (570) 888-9011. More information is available 24 hours a day on Pickett’s website at www.RepPickett.com  or on her Facebook page at www.Facebook.com/RepPickett. Residents can also sign up via her website to receive a weekly email about local and state activities.
