Clothing is offered at only one location, Abraham's House, 312 N. Callow Blvd. in Bremerton. Other services and providers will not be available. 

This event is open to Kitsap County veterans and their immediate families only. Please provide a DD214 form, military retiree ID card, or VA card. Unaccompanied family members must bring a DD214 and proof of relationship.
