Regionally Speaking, Tuesday, September 4, 2018

DAV website

Today:   a conversation with Dave McLenachen , the director of Department of Veterans Affairs' appeals management office in Washington, DC, about the "fast track" rollout of two dedicated programs to help disabled veterans in getting their appeals processed.  The VA is trying to deal with a growing number of appeals being filed.

We have another conversation for you from the Welcome Project at Valparaiso University.  The Welcome Project collects first-person stories and pairs these with intentional conversation, to help forge stronger ties within and across our communities.  And we bring back our earlier conversation with two faculty members at Indiana University Northwest about a new series of medical humanities minor courses.

Chris Nolte produces and hosts “Regionally Speaking” aired weekdays from noon to 1:00 p.m. He's also the temporary local "Morning Edition" host.
