Human & Social Services
In efforts to provide support to Las Vegas residents and the surrounding areas, Keystone Development Center wishes to provide local families and individuals of the Las Vegas, Nevada metropolitan area with food, toiletries, housing and rental assistance and needed medical supplies. In addition, we are collecting donations of PPE personal protective equipment, N-95 masks, and hand sanitizer, for our local heroes on the front lines (all hospital staff, grocery store staff, and first responders). Furthermore, we will be providing gift cards to local grocery and big-box stores for families to purchase needed items. It is also to assist senior citizens who are immobile to provide groceries, toiletries, or other needed supplies to be delivered to their doorstep. This program will also provide families who have been laid off or suspended due to unemployment, harsh economic times and may not have received unemployment benefits. All donations will be used to meet the needs of the Las Vegas valley residents and surrounding areas. With your help, we can make a difference.

Our Mission To Support Veterans
We recognize that many veterans face significant challenges when transitioning back into civilian life. Common issues include Post-Traumatic Stress Disorders (PTSD), substance abuse, depression and suicidal thoughts. These struggles can lead to broader complications such as mental health crises, family difficulties, and even homelessness.
Our goal is to support veterans by encouraging participation in activities and programs designed to reduce stress and shift focus away from past traumatic experiences. Once we identify an activity that a veteran feels passionate about, we promote engagement with other veterans who share similar interests. This helps build camaraderie and a sense of belonging.
In addition, we collaborate veteran focused programs and are ready to provide referrals when specialized support is needed.
Our mission is to help veterans rediscover purpose, community, and stability through connection and empowerment.
