OPERATION CHILLOUT

OPERATION CHILLOUT is NJ’s oldest all-volunteer mobile outreach for homeless veterans, men and women, on a mission since December 21, 2000 – “no borders-no boundaries”. We serve all of New Jersey, Northeast Pennsylvania and coastal Rhode Island.

Operation Chillout is a grassroots interfaith coalition founded in the year 2000 by concerned volunteers to help a group of homeless Viet Nam veterans living in the open under a railroad trestle in northern NJ. We believe in the inherent worth of every homeless man, woman and child and provide emergency supplies and survival gear to the most vulnerable members of our communities wherever we encounter them. We bring our care to all homeless people without regard to their religious affiliation, ethnic heritage or state of life.
