The idea of an outpatient clinic in Sussex County was pushed at a roundtable meeting in October. The Sussex County Board of Chosen Freeholders has also passed a resolution supporting the clinic.

Veterans in Sussex, Warren and western Morris County have to travel more than 40 miles to receive care at a clinic. Additionally, Sussex and Warren are the only two counties in New Jersey that don’t have a veterans’ outpatient clinic, according to the report.
