COMPASSION for Veterans
Welcome to Visit Vets. Com!
We are a project of Church in my park.com dedicated to providing support and resources to veterans in our community. Our mission is to ensure that every veteran has access to the care, socialization and assistance they need while living in health care facilities. Our team is made up of veterans and supporters who are passionate about making a difference in the lives of those who have served.
As of Summer, 2025 we are building and testing a local model in Martin County, Florida with the assistance of American Legion Post 126, Sons, & Auxiliary, Amvets Post 92, Moose Lodge #1690, and The Pointe at Ocean Blvd., Independent Senior Living Home. Thank you to all those who are helping us make this concept a reality - so that those who have served never battle loneliness.
If you live in Stuart, Jensen Beach, Sewall's Point, or Port St. Lucie and would like to volunteer at least 1 hour per week with a veteran who lives in a local VA approved facility or have computer skills and would like to help out in web development, please call Chaplain David Nash @ (561)774-0904.
Our process starts with a quick background check and a brief training video (on-line). The next step is a virtual first visit via visual telephone (FaceTime) to get the volunteer and vet familiar with each other and see if they are compatible. Volunteers should be able to drive to the Pointe at Ocean Blvd., 2750 SE Ocean Blvd. Stuart, FL 34996 OR the Cabana at 1537 NE Cedar Street Jensen Beach FL 34957 at least once per week. Thank you!
