ILLINOIS -- Just in time for Veterans Day, Illinois launched a new website to help military veterans and their families. It's called "Illinois Joining Forces," and aims to make it easier to find services.

It's not just set up for state programs though. The site also partnered with private groups. Governor Quinn says it will help military members get better access to jobs, healthcare and education.
