A heartfelt salute and thank you to all of the United States veterans who have served our country and King County.
Veterans Day is about how we honor our veterans every day of the year and how we keep in our thoughts and prayers the fallen, the missing and those who are serving in harms way. The residents of King County passed the Veterans, Seniors and Human Services Levy (VSHSL) in 2017 which is a direct reflection of how much our community cares and supports our veterans.
Since the 1950s, the King County Veterans Program (KCVP) has connected King County’s veterans to much-needed programs, regardless of discharge status and we continue that charge today. If you are aware of any Veterans in need we ask that you please refer them to the KCVP (contact information below). Thank you to all who have served our great country and know that we owe you a special debt of gratitude for all that you have sacrificed.
