Wasco County Veterans’ Services will host its “Veterans Stand Down” with a number of other agencies on Wednesday at The Dalles Civic Auditorium. Wasco County Veterans’ Services Officer Chelsea Perritt says in a military terms a stand down is a reprieve, but in this case it is a resource fair for Veterans and their families. There will be housing, employment, mental health, and substance use resources on hand. Perritt emphasizes the event is free to all Veterans and their families. It will be open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Wednesday at The Dalles Civic Auditorium.
