Veterans, your mental health matters—and you do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone.

At the 33rd Annual Houston Stand Down, veterans will have an opportunity to connect with mental health organizations, supportive professionals, and community partners who understand the unique experiences of those who have served.

Whether you are looking for someone to talk to, searching for ongoing support, or simply want to learn more about the resources available to you, we invite you to come and make a connection.

You are part of a community that values you, supports you, and wants to see you thrive.

📅 Friday, October 2, 2026
⏰ 9 a.m.–2 p.m.
170 Heights Blvd., Houston, TX

Veteran registration opens September 1. Register at:

Please share this post with a veteran who may need to be reminded that support is available and they are not alone.

Help Us Reuse, Recycle & Serve Our Community!

Career Gear Houston recently received a very large donation of dress shoes and we’re looking for plastic storage tubs with lids to help us organize and store these items for the men we serve.

If you have clean plastic totes collecting dust in your garage or storage room, we’d love to give them a new purpose! Donating them is a great way to keep usable items out of our landfills while directly supporting our mission.

Drop-Off Location:
Career Gear Houston
7830 Westglen Drive
Houston, TX 77063

Drop-Off Hours:
Monday–Friday | 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM

Every donated tub helps us stay organized so we can continue preparing men for employment and economic success.

Thank you for helping us recycle with purpose and for supporting the Career Gear Houston mission! 💙

The Power of Partnership in Action!

Yesterday, we welcomed a new group of organizations to the Career Gear Houston family during our monthly Membership Orientation.

Every month, we have the opportunity to connect with community partners who are passionate about helping Houstonians find meaningful employment and build brighter futures. Together, we create a powerful network of support that helps individuals move from job seeking to job success.

During orientation, our newest members:

- Learn about Career Gear Houston’s programs and services
- Meet our amazing staff
- Tour our facility
- Discover how to connect their clients to our workforce development resources

Once orientation is complete, our partners are ready to begin referring clients and collaborating with us to provide career readiness services, professional attire, workforce training, employment support, and career sustainability resources.

This partnership model continues to prove successful year after year because when organizations work together, our clients win.

If your organization supports job seekers, veterans, justice-impacted individuals, youth, or others pursuing employment opportunities, we’d love to connect with you!

Visit our website to complete a membership application and register for our next Membership Orientation.

Together, we’re helping Houston work. 💙

We are incredibly thankful for partners like Raising Cane’s who continue to show up for our community and support men as they work toward economic empowerment and career success. ❤️🧡
