Scale indicators6 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Others

• CalVet (California Department of Veterans Affairs): The state agency partner explicitly listed in CVV's partnerships. Comparable as a California-specific veteran services administrator, though operating as a government agency rather than a nonprofit.
• Stand Down events (national network): The national Stand Down movement of which the CVV Stand Down is a 35-year veteran. Most direct institutional peer given CVV's annual Stand Down is its flagship event; comparable in event format and service model.

Broad incumbents

• Wounded Warrior Project: A national nonprofit providing programs and services to injured veterans. WWP is a comparable veteran-services peer but operates at vastly greater scale and a broader program footprint than CVV's regional Fresno/Central Valley focus.
• Disabled American Veterans (DAV): A congressionally chartered veterans service organization providing benefits assistance and support to disabled veterans. Comparable to CVV in mission alignment with disabled veterans, but operates nationally with professional staff and far greater resources.
• Health Net (CA Veterans): A managed care organization serving California's veteran and Medi-Cal populations through federal contracts. Comparable to CVV as a California-focused veterans-services stakeholder, though operates as a corporate healthcare entity rather than a charity.
• Team Rubicon: A veteran-led disaster response nonprofit that mobilizes veterans for emergency relief and community service. Comparable to CVV in combining emergency response with veteran engagement, though Team Rubicon operates nationally and has a paid professional staff.

Direct peers

• AMVETS (American Veterans): A national congressionally chartered veterans service organization explicitly listed as a CVV partner. Directly comparable in mission and in providing local veteran support services through a chapter-based model.

Emerging players

• Hope for the Warriors: A national nonprofit providing comprehensive support for post-9/11 veterans including emergency financial assistance, housing, and clinical services. Comparable to CVV's emergency assistance and Hospitality House programs, though operates at greater geographic scale.
• Fisher House Foundation: A nonprofit providing free temporary housing to families of veterans and service members receiving medical care. Directly comparable to CVV's Bill Gonzalez Hospitality House program, though Fisher House operates at major VA medical centers nationwide.
• Travis Manion Foundation: A veteran-service organization focused on character development and community engagement among post-9/11 veterans. Comparable to CVV in community-led veteran engagement, though focused on veterans' continued service rather than emergency assistance.
