“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Scott Winters, the readjustment counselor at the DuBois Veterans Center in Pennsylvania's 15th Congressional District. Mr. Winters provides a wide range of psychosocial services offered to eligible veterans, servicemembers, and their families. His efforts assist our veterans in making a successful transition from the military to civilian life. Recently, Mr. Winters was recognized by the Spring Creek Chapter of Trout Unlimited for presenting a listening skills course to their Veterans Service Partnership streamside mentors and other interested members to support veterans in crisis situations. The VSP program is a Trout Unlimited initiative to serve veterans, Active-Duty military, and their families by engaging them through the recreational benefits of angling, with the support of the Trout Unlimited community. Mr. Winters' service that he provided in training has been utilized by at least one volunteer to save a veteran's life who was in crisis. Mr. Speaker, Scott Winters has gone above and beyond to be available at a moment's notice to support veterans in his community, and his service is greatly appreciated. ____________________”
