More Than a Home: A Community for Our Veterans.
At NNCH, we provide more than just a roof. We provide a community of support, specialized resources, and a path toward stability for Nevada’s veterans.
Specialized Support from People Who Care
Meet Frank, our Veteran Advocate.
Recognizing that our veterans face unique challenges, we’ve established dedicated leadership focused exclusively on veteran advocacy.
From navigating complex paperwork to ensuring our residents feel “housed, supported, and loved,” Frank is your first point of contact within the NNCH community.
“Our mission is to bridge the gap between homelessness and a permanent home by being a constant, reliable resource for those who served.”
We don’t just offer housing; we prioritize those who served.
We actively track our housing metrics to ensure we are meeting the needs of our local veteran population and reducing rejection rates through proactive advocacy.

Essential Resources for Daily Success

Residents get exclusive access to our Extensive Veteran Resource Directory, a curated guide to trusted local services, healthcare, and benefits that has become a vital, go-to tool for our veteran community.

Creative Events and Classes for Veterans
The DJD Foundation hosts a variety of events and classes that use art, creativity, and community to support healing, expression, and connection for veterans and the military‑connected community.
From visual art workshops and writing projects to group gatherings and hands‑on activities, these programs provide opportunities to explore new skills, express personal stories, and build connections with others. Many offerings are free for veterans and their families, with inclusive options available to all participants.
While these programs are designed to support veterans and military-connected individuals, many classes are also open to non-veterans who wish to participate and support the community.
