Veteran Services
The Littleton Department of Veterans' Services is established according to Massachusetts General Law (MGL) Chapter 115, Section 10 and is administered under state guidelines to provide information, advice, and assistance to veterans, veteran's dependents, and widows and children of deceased veterans.
The Town of Littleton Department of Veterans Services serves as an advocate for all veterans and their dependents. The department advises residents as to the availability of federal and state services and benefits to which they are entitled to. In addition, the department provides financial assistance to qualifying veterans, surviving spouses and their dependents.
This department also assists veterans in applying for federal VA benefits, such as service connected compensations, non-service connected disability pensions, medical benefits, home loans, educational benefits, death and burial benefits, as well as pension benefits for those veterans in assisted living or are housebound. This office is not affiliated with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs!
If you are a veteran in need of services or information, my office hours are Monday and Thursday, 9 - 12 and by appointment any other time. You can reach me at 978-540-2485. If I am not available, please leave a message on the machine and I will return your call as soon as possible. If it is an emergency, please call 978-807-3856
This special corner was created on Littleton Common to honor all service men and women from Littleton who fought in the American Armed Forces since World War 2 (WWII) to date. Currently there are three monuments in the Veterans Corner (WWII, Korean and Vietnam), but there are now over 460 names to be added to the Veterans Corner honor roll. This will entail adding two more monuments, refurbishing the existing monuments, replacing the pavers, re-landscaping the area surrounding the corner and adding new lighting. To learn more about this project or to make a donation, please go to the Veterans Corner Project on the Friends of Littleton's Veterans Facebook page.
Patriotic Banners
Patriotic Banners (Shown below) are also being sold to support this project! If you wish to honor a veteran you know, someone currently serving in the military, or an anonymous veteran, please visit the Friends of Littleton's Veterans Facebook page for information on purchasing your banner. Patriotic banners will be hung on the electric poles lining Great Road and King Street, from May 1, 2019, through November 30, 2019. For more information, please email Friends of Littleton Veterans. This program is currently on hold, but we are looking to do this again in the future.
