The Stand Down provides men and women military veteran’s immediate access to a multitude of services through the generous support of Jesse Brown V.A. Medical Center, the U.S. Department of Defense, sponsorships from community business and partners, and committed volunteers. The event receives oversight by a Stand Down host committee, made up of top veterans and veteran advocates in Illinois. For any questions, please contact Dan Alberti, dalberti@missioncontinues.org
