                         The Department of Veterans ' Services is to advocate on behalf of all the
                         Commonwealth's Veterans and provide them with quality support services
                         and to direct an emergency financial assistance program for those Veterans
                         and their dependents who are in need of benefits and services. In 1946, the
                         Selectmen  of the Towns of North Andover and Boxford voted to form a
                         district and appointed a District Director of Veterans' Services to carry out
                         the provisions of Chapter 115 of the General Laws. The Veterans Service
                         Officer (VSO) is located at the North Andover Town Hall on Main Street.
