Support Local Vets
SUPPORT VETERANS THIS MEMORIAL DAY 3 CALIFORNIA-BASED GROUPS YOU CAN HELP
California Association of Veteran Service Agencies Website: CaliforniaVeterans.org What if people formed a network of experts who could connect veterans to the right organizations, advocate on behalf of veterans, and provide real services these vets need, like housing and disability support? Thanks to the California Association of Veteran Service Agencies (CAVSA), there is. CAVSA connects seven veterans’ groups together to serve homeless veteran populations in California.
