Program accomplishments
- Vietnam Veterans of San Diego dba Veterans Village of San Diego (VVSD) is a non-profit corporation founded in 1981. VVSD supports 3,100 of Americas veterans each year, helping them to overcome homelessness and related challenges. As the only licensed residential drug treatment program for homeless veterans in San Diego County, VVSD provides a Comprehensive Continuum of Care (Prevention, Intervention, Treatment & Aftercare) to veterans and their families. Our mission extends assistance to Veterans and their families beyond the basic food, clothing, and shelter.Emergency and transitional housing are coupled with personalized case management services for substance use recovery, mental health counseling, job training/job search assistance, legal services, and much more. This integrated approach addresses their fundamental needs, but also provides an opportunity to introduce alternative healing activities, which are found to be equally beneficial in the recovery process.VVSD is the founder of both Stand Down and Homeless Court, which began in 1987 and 1990, respectively. Both programs address a broad spectrum of services, and help to remove barriers for securing housing, employment, and social services. Stand Down is the point of entry for many of these brave men and women. Today, more than 300 Stand Downs have been replicated across our nation, and many major cities have established their own Homeless Court.VVSD operates the Steven A. Cohen Military Family Clinic, which provides confidential, high-quality mental health services at low-to-no-cost to post-9/11 veterans (including National Guard and Reserves), their families, and the families of active duty service members, including spouse or partner, children, parents, siblings, caregivers, and others. VVSD Escondido, LLC is a single member LLC owned by VVSD.
