Veterans Outreach Center and Partners Hosting National Vietnam Veterans Day Event


Rochester, NY - Veterans Outreach Center, Monroe County, and the VA Finger Lakes Healthcare System will recognize National Vietnam Veterans Day at the Roger Robach Community Center, 180 Beach Ave., Rochester, NY 14612 at 10:00 a.m. on March 27. Join us as we honor those who made it home, and the 58,220 American service members who never did.


“As we gather to honor our Vietnam Veterans, we're commemorating the past and also reaffirming our commitment to the future,” Veterans Outreach Center Executive Director and U.S. Army Veteran Laura Heltz said. “The legacy of their service continues to shape the vital support Veterans Outreach Center provides, and this day is a reminder that their sacrifices were not in vain, and that we are always standing at the ready to serve them.”


This event is open to the public. No RSVP is required. A light breakfast will be served, and a free valet service will be available for veterans who need it.


Founded in 1973 by returning Vietnam veterans, Veterans Outreach Center is the nation’s oldest community-based non-profit dedicated to serving veterans and their families. VOC provides a comprehensive portfolio of free resources designed to build veteran success, including workforce development, residential services, legal support, wellness programs, and more.
