Veteran Agencies Embracing Tele-Townhall® Technology

(December 09, 2015) Washington, D.C. – Veterans Affairs (VA) Centers across the country are learning firsthand about the benefit of telephone town hall technology. Reaching out to over 22,000 veterans Tuesday evening, the John J. Pershing VA Medical Center of Poplar Bluff achieved unprecedented outreach during its first ever live Tele-Town Hall® event. 7,600 different veterans participated. The event concluded with approximately 700 veterans still on the line. Among those asked, 94% of Veterans were in favor of future Tele-Town Hall® events.

"The success of the Ann Arbor VA Center tele-town hall event has given other VA Centers pause to reevaluate their outreach strategy, which enabled the John J. Pershing VA Center to produce a similar event with above average results," stated Johnny Craig, Business Development & Account Manager at Tele-Town Hall®. For the last several months, Johnny Craig and his colleague Dave Clarke have been working with VA Centers across the country to help them implement Tele-Town Hall® events into their overall outreach plans. "This type of work is very rewarding, as we can immediately assess that Veterans are participating and learning firsthand about resources available to them," said Craig.

Tele-Town Hall® is able to provide telephone town hall events to government agencies as a registered vendor for the Federal Government (via SAM, System for Award Management).
