We invite all veterans to join us for our annual Stand Down event, a day dedicated to providing support, services, and resources to those who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces.

Whether you’re currently experiencing homelessness, at risk of housing instability, facing financial hardship, or simply in need of a few key services — this event is for you.

What to Bring:

You do not need to prove veteran status to access basic services. However, bringing any of the following can help us better connect you with the right supports: (If you don’t have these documents on hand, our case workers can help you obtain them—if you’re eligible.)

  • DD-214 or discharge paperwork
  • VA or military ID
  • Any documents related to housing, medical care, or employment
  • Optional: a list of medications or health concerns
