New Cook County program helps veterans with home repair work

A new program in Cook County is looking to help veterans keep up with repair work to their homes.

The $1.5 million initiative will look to fund at least 30 veteran home projects over the course of two years.

This will include both indoor and outdoor repair work which will be free to veteran homeowners in the county or caretakers who provide housing to a veteran.
