Dress Right Dress Inc. Announces New Office Location in Downtown Tiffin

October 14, 2025

TIFFIN, OHIO – October 14, 2025 – Dress Right Dress Inc., a nonprofit organization assisting Service Members and Veterans of the United States Armed Forces, will relocate its office to 120 1/2 S Washington Street, Suite 215, in Downtown Tiffin later this fall.

Founded in 2015 and established as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2019, Dress Right Dress Inc. provides peer-to-peer support and resources to assist Veterans and Service Members facing transitional hardships and life after military service. The organization currently serves Veterans incarcerated within the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections system and those residing in Ohio, with services available across all 88 counties in the state.

In 2021, the organization was certified by the Department of Ohio Mental Health and Addiction Services as a peer-run organization. In 2022, it expanded its mission to include a Reentry Program specifically for Veterans involved in the justice system. The Dress, Right, Dress™ curriculum, a peer-facilitated program, focuses on mental health, substance use disorders, and other reentry needs. Participants who complete the program while incarcerated work with peer mentors and program administrators to develop goal plans and receive information on community resources. Upon release, graduates are provided wrap-around services to support their reintegration into society.

“Each year, more than 250,000 Service Members transition out of the military, and many are unprepared for civilian life or unaware of available community resources,” said Jeremy Parkins, founder of Dress Right Dress Inc. “Our goal is to bridge that gap by providing education, mentorship, and access to resources that ensure our Veterans are supported at every step of the transition process.”

Mayor Wilkinson commented, “We are honored to welcome Dress Right Dress Inc. to Downtown Tiffin. Their mission to support our Service Members and Veterans through mentorship and reentry services fills a critical need in Ohio and beyond.”  

For more information about Dress Right Dress Inc. or to connect with available programs and resources, contact the organization at (419) 455-1404 or admin@dressrightdressinc.org. Updates are also available on Facebook and LinkedIn.

In 2014, the City of Tiffin partnered with local organizations to serve as the official downtown development entity. Tiffin Tomorrow was incorporated into this effort, which now operates under the Seneca County Collaborative as the Downtown Development Board, the governing body for downtown revitalization efforts.
