Photos & Media: NH Veteran Stand Down 2024
With lead sponsor Eversource NH, Harbor Care presented its 20th Annual NH Veteran Stand Down in partnership with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the U.S. Department of Labor. More than 150 veterans, non-profit and government service providers from throughout the state attended the event, an expo for former service members experiencing homelessness or in need of assistance. The vendors offered access and resources for housing, employment, pension claims, heating and energy, healthcare, financial assistance, food, clothing, and more.
“The journey into homelessness is often dark and complex, but through our collective efforts, we can offer a beacon of light and hope to Veterans in need,” said Henry Och, President & CEO of Harbor Care. “Success in this impactful initiative requires strong partnerships and collaboration, with every service organization and every city and state agency playing a vital role. The Stand Down is a great example of our community in collective action towards a shared purpose."
