Join us on June 18 at 3 p.m. for this virtual Community Engagement Forum presented by VetsCAN.

Our guest will be Angie Nickels, President of the Wayne D. Horner Memorial Stand Down.

The mission of the Wayne D. Horner Memorial Stand Down is to link community partners offering a wide variety of essential services by providing ‘a hand-up not a hand-out’ to veterans experiencing, or at risk of homelessness. The Wayne D. Horner Memorial Veterans Stand Down will invite our veterans experiencing homelessness to a daylong event on October 17, 2026. Veterans will be welcome from Dane, Columbia, Dodge, Jefferson, Rock, Green, Iowa, and Sauk Counties. Stand Down seeks to reach all veterans experiencing homelessness in the Madison community, no matter the duration served or circumstances of discharge. This event relies on hundreds of volunteers and preparation throughout the year.

Please join us June 18 at 3 p.m. to learn more!
