The Veterans Stand Down is a free, one-day event dedicated to honoring veterans by connecting them with vital resources, services, and community support in a single, welcoming location. Veterans and their families from all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces from throughout Northern California and Southern Oregon are encouraged to attend. No cost, no pre-registration required.

The event will provide access to a wide range of services and support, including but not limited to:
· Veteran benefits information and assistance
· Health and wellness resources
· Housing and social services support
· Free haircuts for Veterans
· Community-based organizations and service providers
· Food, giveaways, and on-site assistance
· Military vehicles and memorabilia

The Stand Down model is designed to reduce barriers for veterans by offering coordinated, respectful, and veteran-centered support. The event is about “dignity, gratitude, and ensuring that our veterans know their community stands with them,” says Glenn County Supervisor Monica Rossman.
