Event overview

Florida's very first peer-led drop in and peer-led respite is coming to Orlando. Peer Support Space is developing a drop in/respite that will serve as a resource to individuals with mental health concerns and/or struggling with homelessness. TMC has offered to assist Peer Support Space in remodeling and improving the drop in/respite center. Peer Support Space was donated a home in Kissimmee, Florida in order to open and we are answering their call for help! TMC and Peer Support Space are still in the early phases of planning to determine the exact scope of work the project will entail, however, we are set to host a service project on Saturday - December 7, 2019. The service project will likely include painting, carpentry, cleaning, yardwork, and ofcourse FUN! Come out, get dirty, work hard, and most importantly have fun contributing to a great cause. DJ MUSIC AND FOOD!!!

Who We Are

The Mission Continues is a national non-profit that empowers veterans to continue serving in our nation’s under-resourced communities, giving veterans the opportunity to keep serving even after the uniform comes off, right here at home. Our programs deploy veterans and volunteers to work alongside nonprofit partners and community leaders to improve educational resources, tackle food insecurity, foster neighborhood identity, and more.  

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.

What is a Service Platoon? 

Service Platoons are your opportunity to engage and connect with veterans and community members while generating community impact in a real and tangible way. Led by veteran volunteer platoon leaders, each platoon works with dedicated community partners and volunteers to provide the manpower and support that they need to help them do their work more effectively. 

We currently have service platoons in more than 40+ cities across the country that are having events at least once a month. Everyone is invited to serve, regardless of veteran status: a service platoon is for you if you have a passion for service.
