U.S.VETS Patriotic Hall

Remember when we hosted a free screening of Inside Out 2 for over 100 veterans and their family members? Sorry, our nostalgia kicked in - last Friday, Coastline College and our Outside the Wire program welcomed the local Orange County veteran community to a free dinner and movie night, complete with activities from our partners at Strong Families Safe Children and Partners4Wellness. Thank you for all who attended - #ServingThoseWhoServed fills us with joy! #HonorUSVETS #VeteranMentalHealth #veteranfamily

Our first trivia night of the semester couldn’t come at a better time at Cypress College, as we just crossed over our 300 veteran milestone! Since our Outside the Wire first stepped on campus, we have served 300+ student veterans at Cypress through individual mental health appointments and case management services. We also have had the pleasure of hosting dozens of events over the years, including our signature trivia nights every semester. Congrats to our student veteran Henry for being crowned our new king of trivia, and thank you to Cypress for being incredible partners in #ServingThoseWhoServed #HonorUSVETS #StudentVeterans #orangecountyveterans

Our Outside the Wire team is keeping busy this October! Over the past few weeks, our team brought out the inner artists in our veterans at Orange Coast College and Golden West College with the help of Partners4Wellness, enjoyed a potluck at the Cypress College VRC and facilitated a VA Home Loan education class at Santiago Canyon College. We're honored to provide entertainment and educational opportunities to those we serve on top of our free individual and group therapy sessions. #ServingThoseWhoServed #HonorUSVETS #StudentVeterans #OrangeCounty

We walk for veteran suicide prevention and their overall mental health. Thank you to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention for inviting us to their #OutOfTheDarkness Community Walk in Santa Monica this past Saturday. We were honored to be among partners committed to raising awareness about this cause and supporting each other in rememberance of those we've lost, as well as helping those in the community in need of services. #ServingThoseWhoServed #HonorUSVETS #VeteranMentalHealth

Congratulations to CEO Steve Peck on being honored in the Mighty 25 Class of 2024, a national distinction for disrupters forcing change and leaving a notable impact for veterans, military and family members. “I couldn’t have asked for anything better in my life; to be able to do this work and see the impact that we’ve made,” Peck told We Are The Mighty, the digital publisher that names the Mighty 25. He was honored at the Military Influencer Conference, the largest gathering of influential leaders, entrepreneurs and brands in the military space.

Our Women Vets on Point Sista' Mixa' was a haute hit! The "VET" Gala this weekend welcomed over 60 veteran women from all over California, giving them the space to celebrate their service, connect with our partner organizations and dance the afternoon away! Every attendee also received a free gift bag, with some also winning raffles such as American Legion gala tickets and shopping sprees at Sephora. We're honored to have hosted this event in partnership with SoCal Grantmakers and Los Angeles County Department of Military & Veterans Affairs. Thank you as well to our local posts at the The American Legion (46, 283, 291 and 309), Marine Corps League (1347), Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW), and our connections at Patriots and Paws and California Department of Veterans Affairs for empowering our veteran women to take advantage of what they provide and let them know #SheServedToo #HonorUSVETS #ServingThoseWhoServed #WomenVeterans

Check out the work of our budding veteran artists at Santiago Canyon College! In collaboration with Partners4Wellness, our Outside the Wire Orange County team is hosting paint nites at local community college campuses throughout the fall semester. We're looking forward to our next session this week at Golden West College and appreciate all the support in giving these veterans a fun, relaxing night in between study sessions. #ServingThoseWhoServed #HonorUSVETS #VeteranArtTherapy #veteranartist
