Mission Statement
Our organization exists to help meet the needs of all honorably discharged, active
duty, and reserve military veterans, past and present. We are committed to providing a
place for veterans to interact with fellow veterans, network together and the
camaraderie that all have shared while proudly serving our country. We will continue
to diligently work together within our organization and with other organizations to
assist our veterans and their families in need of lodging, financial, and physical or
mental medical assistance with resource information our veterans so desperately need
and deserve. We will strive to create close interpersonal relationships, trust, and an
emotional safety net with all of our veterans.
Veterans and their family members are always welcome and encouraged to visit and
tour our military veterans’ center.
