We advocate for Renee Imhoff to be the next Director of the Greene County Office of Veterans Affairs. Renee has dedicated years of service in the office, bringing a wealth of experience and a personal connection to the veteran community. As the daughter of a USMC Korean War veteran and a founding member of Together With Veterans - Greene County, she has been instrumental in outreach and support initiatives that address the critical issue of veteran suicide. Her accreditation as a Veteran Service Officer has enabled her to assist veterans and their families in securing essential VA compensation and pension claims, amounting to thousands of dollars in deserved benefits.

The current stance of the Greene County commissioners, flawed as it may be, is that Greene County veterans demand a veteran for the director's position. However, the county’s veteran community needs a leader who prioritizes their welfare and understands their unique challenges. Renee Imhoff embodies these qualities, making her the ideal candidate for the role, regardless of her non-veteran status.

Furthermore, the Greene County Office of Veterans Affairs has long faced significant staffing shortages, hindering its ability to serve the 8.2% of the county's veteran population. This issue needs the commissioners’ immediate attention to improve service delivery and support.

Call to Action


We urge the Greene County commissioners to:

1. Recognize Renee Imhoff's qualifications, experience, and dedication by appointing her as the next Director of the Greene County Office of Veterans Affairs.
2. 2. Address the critical understaffing issue by creating an additional Veteran Service Officer position to ensure that the needs of our veterans and their families are met efficiently and compassionately.
