This nonprofit is housed on the 2nd floor of a building right off of George Washington University's…read morecampus, which can have an adverse effect on hunting down parking spaces depending on what time of day you come - but, provides you with a smorgasbord of food truck selections should you feel peckish before your class/event at the center . Although the primary focus of the center is to assist disabled veterans with finding career opportunities in the Washington DC area, many of their workshops and events are open to the local veteran community and are held primarily during weekday daytime hours. They also run the Washington DC Kaufman FastTrac class for new and aspiring military veteran entrepreneurs. I came here for the FastTrac program, which I'd highly recommend to anyVET who's contemplating owning and operating their own business. You do have to sign in at the front desk of the building, but sometimes the concierge is inconsistent so I'm not sure if it's a building thing or what - either way be sure to check in with the front desk. There are other nonprofits that inhabit the building but I'm not sure about their mission/focus. At the veterans center on the 2nd floor there's restrooms, two classrooms and a mini-lounge area with materials about other veterans-centric programs/events occurring in the area. They're not open on the weekends but I think that's because the building itself isn't open then. Lastly, check out their facebook page for upcoming events/details: https://www.facebook.com/Nationalvetsgetstarted

A friend asked me to join them for Family Feud after Bingo. While I waited I went to bar in the…read moreBingo room and was rudely told that I had to go to the front bar. Off I went cash in hand and stood at the bar. The female bartender yelled at myself and another man that she was making a drink and the male bartender then helped 7 men that came in after me. After the female bartender finished making two drinks (that took about 10 minutes) then looked at me then helped two women of her own race that also came in after me. All this time there was another woman, not of my race that was audibly grumbling about people of my race being at the bar. At that point I gave up and left. May I add that this is exactly the same nonsense that chased my husband and I away a decade ago. We go to other legions in the area (Springfield and Lorton) where everyone is welcoming of all races and gender. It is a shame that at a non profit entity blocks from the US Capitol and what would be the closest bar to my home, you can't a bottle of beer based on your race or gender!
