About

Civic Circle Foundation is a non-profit 501(c) (3) corporation that will transform homeless veterans into productive citizens through Operation Stand Down for Homeless Warriors.

The original Stand Down for homeless veterans was modeled after the Stand Down concept used during the Vietnam War to provide a safe retreat for units returning from combat operations.  At secure base camp areas, troops were able to take care of personal hygiene, get clean uniforms, enjoy warm meals, receive medical and dental care, mail and receive letters, and enjoy the camaraderie of friends in a safe environment.  Stand Down afforded battle-weary soldiers the opportunity to renew their spirit, health, and overall sense of well-being.
