Homeless Veteran Stand Down


Every year, the Homeless Veterans Stand Down draws hundreds of people. It brings together organizations and resources to help veterans without roofs over their heads.

These events connect men and women veterans to the medical and mental health care as well as housing resources they need.

There are many success stories that come from these annual events. Last year, veteran Terry Crone said he was able to obtain Section 8 housing through the assistance he received.

In Reno, the upcoming Stand Down will be held on September 21, 2021 at the HCHV, located at 350 Capitol Hill St. from 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Participating organizations and vendors are asked to be there between 5:30-6:30 a.m. to set up before the gates are opened. You may contact Veterans Resource Centers of America, 419 W. Plumb Ln.
