The mission of Grow for Vets USA is to help save the more than 50 Veterans who die each day from suicide and prescription drug overdose. Grow for Vets provides Veteran heroes with safe alternatives to deadly prescription drugs. We connect Veterans with the knowledge and resources necessary to obtain or grow their own cannabis for the treatment of their medical conditions.
While there has been a significant shift in perception and laws alike in recent years, there is a great deal of work yet to be done. Through education, advocacy, research support and partnerships with like-minded organizations, VCP will ensure that veterans today and in future generations can improve their quality of life through access to medical marijuana.
At Operation EVAC Our mission is to support the growth and healing of veterans through mutual assistance, personal development, and community service.

SCVA strives to be a community for veterans and supporters to reach out to one another. We want to create a place for veterans to speak about their combat experiences and the therapeutic benefits of medical cannabis, specifically as it relates to the traumas of war. We promote the medicinal benefits of cannabis and how to better address issues of pharmaceutical dependence, depression, anxiety, anger, and other ailments. The SCVA team also hopes to bring awareness to the issue of veteran suicide, which occurs at a staggering rate of at least 22 a day.
