The legendary rock and blues club – The Stanhope House – will host the first annual OPERATION CHILLOUT Homeless NJ Veterans Benefit Show, Saturday, November 12, from 1 to 6 pm.

It provides emergency outreach to homeless military veterans in 12 NJ counties.

A Rapid Response Unit serves homeless vets 24/7 binging them hope and emergency survival gear, new warm clothing, footwear, toiletries, legal advocacy, Veteran’s Administration housing info, and referrals to other rehab services.
