The following services are available every Tuesday at the Resource Center:

  • Homeless Veterans Assistance: Veterans can connect to resources through the VA Community Resource and Referral Center, which offers assistance to Veterans who are homeless and at risk of homelessness by providing connections to permanent housing, health and mental health care, career development and VA benefits


The city also has a Surprise Veteran Job Club that meets on the first and third Thursdays of the month at 6 p.m. at the Surprise Resource Center. The center is located on the AZ TechCelerator campus at 12425 W. Bell Rd, Building A, Suite No. 124 in Surprise.
