The City of Monterey is proud to announce a new program called Students for Heroes, part of Hidden Heroes initiative. Students for Heroes partners student volunteers with caregivers of veterans. The volunteers assist caregivers with day to day errands, chores, and tasks with the goal of allowing caregivers free time for respite and self-care.

If you know a military caregiver or a potential student volunteer, who may be interested in learning more about the City's Students for Heroes program, please visit the City’s Hidden Heroes webpage.
