2025 stand down & Job Fair

Our Stand Down brings together all the resources you've earned in one accessible location. Originally inspired by the military concept of "Stand Down" – where combat units pause to rest and regroup – this event offers veterans a moment to focus on your civilian life with dedicated support from people who understand your journey. The event creates a space where your service is honored and your needs are prioritized.

Stand Down provides a central hub where professionals from dozens of organizations are ready to meet with you one-on-one. No appointments necessary. No lengthy application processes. Just straightforward help from people who respect your service.

For more information, please contact Nena Siverd at 585.295.7818 or Nena.Siverd@vocroc.org.
