Iowa veterans are being encouraged to take part in a national voluntary research program on veterans who get their care in the Veterans Administration Healthcare System. Iowa Department of Veterans Affairs executive director, Robert King, says it’s called the Million Veteran Program.

King says the studies are an important part of helping veterans.

He says they are seeking Iowa veterans to take part to help them reach their sign up goal.
The V-A in Iowa City is one of the 60 centers where veterans can take part.
