About The Circle of Veterans and Families

The Circle of Veterans and Families (COV) is a 501c3 Charitable Organization located at The  Circle of Veterans Ranch and Rehabilitation Center, a beautiful 10-acre ranch in Dade City/Lacoochee, Pasco County, Florida. The ranch is uniquely modified to create a transition space for education, relaxing, rejuvenating and most of all connecting.  We provide transitional housing for eight male veterans at a time but invite other veterans to come and socialize at any time.

Our doors are open when needed, for an hour, a day or as a resident during the Veteran’s transition.  COV provides can provide alternative therapies, including equine and animal therapy, that doesn’t require the veteran to relive their traumatic experience.  We are here to support Veterans and do our part in ending Veteran suicide and Homelessness.
