April
14, 2015  Judge Ken Goble, Jr. announces the inaugural edition of Montgomery County’s Veterans
Treatment Court (MCVTC) newsletter. I want to start by
thanking the whole MCVTC staff and team for all of their hard work on
behalf of our veterans. I especially want to recognize and thank Katelan
Shartzer for envisioning and starting this newsletter. I hope you can
take time to review them each month. Our goal is to keep you updated on
our progress and educate as many as possible about all of the services
available to veterans in our community. I would also encourage you to
pass them along to others that might be interested.  Read more

brought on by the ravages of untreated wartime stress. It will also
include some active duty soldiers who end up in the system.  Read more.
