Our Story
In late 2014, community discussions revealed a significant gap in services for veterans in Northeastern Connecticut, home to approximately 60,000 veterans. Recognizing the need for a supportive environment, the Danielson Veterans Coffeehouse was established in April 2015. Initially starting as a twice-monthly meeting with just 13 veterans, the Coffeehouse has grown into a vital community hub where veterans of all ages can meet, socialize, and access information about benefits and services.
