East Tennessee is comprised with a substantial amount of Veterans and their families. Their selfless service often leaves them in need of much support, but that support is often cumbersome to navigate leaving one feeling alone in the process. Northeast Tennessee region is the second largest per capita population of Veterans ranging from 10% - 13% in the state of Tennessee. According to the Housing Assistance Council (HAC), there are 431,274 veterans living in Tennessee, that represents approx 8.3% of the state’s adult population.
Vietnam Veterans make up the largest demographic of Veterans in this region followed by Global War on Terror Veterans. We seek to do a better job connecting those well deserved Veterans and their families with all the amazing resources that are within arms reach.
Our facility seeks to centralize those resources bringing knowledge and guidance to our region. We promote wellness on many fronts integrating not only our Veterans, their families and their legacies to our community.
