CT NOW's August Activist of the Month
This past month CT NOW decided to honnor Margaret Middleton for her strong commitment to women's issues. Margaret has always been a champion for veterans as co-founder and executive director of the Connecticut Veterans Legal Center.
Armed with the story of two women who were raped while in the military, Margaret urged U.S. Congress to make it easier for victims of sexual assault to get cleared for disability compensation by addressing the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs Subcommittee on Disability Assistance and Memorial Affairs.
