The Commission

The Seneca County Veterans Service Commission is a five member board appointed under the provisions of Title 59 of the Ohio Revised Code.  Each member is appointed by the Judge of the Court of Common Pleas of Seneca County for a term of five years.  Each is appointed to represent a specific veterans organization – in our county, currently  The American Legion, AMVETS, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Vietnam Veterans of America, and one at large member.  Even though their appointment is from a specific organization, they represent all Seneca County Veterans and their families.
