Additionally, specialized support kits will be available for veterans who experiencing homelessness, and complimentary lunch will also be provided during the event.

Flu shots will also be available to veterans enrolled with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

"I am honored to participate in the 11^th annual West Metro Veterans Fair, an event that continues to grow in importance as we strive to connect veterans and their families with vital resources," said Master of Ceremonies Chris Hoeh, a United States Army veteran and sergeant with the Lakewood Police Department. "This event is a testament to our collective commitment to supporting those who have served our country."
