Operation Stand Down Tennessee (OSDTN)

Operation Commissary 

Supported in partnership with the NFL

Operation Stand Down Tennessee (OSDTN) provides and connects veterans and their families with transition, employment, housing, benefits, peer engagement, food, and social connection resources. In 2021, the Bob Woodruff Foundation supported the creation of Operation Commissary. The Commissary provides home-delivery to veterans, and delivers food boxes to partner locations. Operation Commissary also uses food assistance to engage veterans in additional supportive services. This NFL-BWF Healthy Lifestyles and Creating Community grant will fund a case manager to provide enhanced service coordination and follow-up . This funding will provide food assistance and case management for 500 veteran and military households.
