The mission of the Veterans Welcome Home and Resource Center is to assist our local honorably discharged veterans with job placement, filing claims with the Veterans Administration, help those veterans who find themselves in deep financial difficulty, and temporarily shelter those veterans who are homeless until permanent housing can be secured. In order to accomplish these goals, we will seek out all available resources within the community, and bring better awareness to the sacrifices our military veterans have endured to provide safety and security for the United States of America.

The Center was established in June 2009 as a 501c3 non-profit organization in a rented house with limited resources. By 2014 the Center had acquired a 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath house that was converted into office space for the volunteers and a temporary shelter for homeless veterans.  Our financial assistance grew from $300 in 2009 to over $44,000 in 2018. Fundraising is diverse and ranges from golf outings to Beach Bashes, to car shows, and many other events that allow local civic and community organizations to help support both the Veterans Welcome Home and Resource Center and the Hutton Reintegration House.
