North County Veteran Stand Down
North County Veteran Stand Down is a four-day event in Vista, California, that enables homeless veterans to receive much-needed services in a safe, friendly, drug-free and secure environment.
Check out the video to learn more about NCVSD and hear about the impact it has on our guests.
The North County Stand Down is an event for ALL Veterans regardless of housing, employment, and financial status.
What We Have Accomplished
The Impact We Make By The Numbers
Veterans & their Familes Served
We provide all Veterans, homeless or in need, with the tools and resources to be self-sustaining members of society. 100 of these Veterans gained permanent housing.
Eye Glasses
Eyeglasses were made and distributed on site along
with eye exams.
Court Fines Forgiven
Fines cleared for infractions such as loitering, camping, or sleeping in your car. This enables Veterans to get a job and be able to pay for their living expenses.
Dental Work Provided
With the support of various organizations and business, we have been able to provide Veterans with necessary dental work at no expense
to them.
