The New England Center and Home for Veterans (NECHV) will host the Greater Boston Stand Down, a one-day event that brings together service providers and local Veterans and enables Veterans to receive immediate comprehensive and coordinated services in one place.
This remarkable community event will comprise more than 100 service providers, employers and community organizations to provide essential supportive services to Veterans in the Greater Boston area (must bring proof of military service), including housing assistance, medical care and wellness programs, legal support and employment assistance.
A free lunch and refreshments will be available to all attendees. Entertainment will be provided throughout the day. On-site child care will be offered to Veteran families who need to access the critical stabilization services available at Stand Down.
