The Volusia County Council is set to make it official Tuesday that "Volusia Values Veterans," by ratifying a multi-pronged program bearing that name. The program attempts to show the county's commitment to its more than 50,000 veterans and address some of their critical needs. Councilman Jake Johansson, a veteran himself, said he pushed for the program. He wants Volusia to be “the best place for veterans in the state of Florida.”"And this is just a start. We’re going to keep going," he said.
