Veterans First Orange County
Established in 1971. We honor the brave men and women of the military by helping to restore dignity to those Veterans whose sacrifices have left them in need. We will be here for them, until there are no American heroes sleeping in the streets, parks, cars or in alleyways, just as they were there for all of us. We are the only nonprofit 501(C)(3) community based agency in Orange County that provides services exclusively to homeless and disabled Veterans and their families.
