Why Veterans?
Because they fought for our freedom, so we are fighting for them
37,000 Veterans are homeless
Our programs are designed to actually help the Veterans
Using the word “actually” may sound alarming, but its true, all we care about is actually helping the Veterans
Health
Mental illness effects substance abuse and physical health, causing the Veteran homeless population
8% of all homeless are Veterans. Access to quality rehabilitative programs can keep Veterans from falling back into homelessness.
Stabilization
Veterans and their families often have zero stability, and without stability they cannot get back on there feet
The VA has funded 1.8 billion through HUD-VASH to offer permanent housing to Veterans and decreases the total days spent homeless
Employment
Employment creates stabilization and purpose which is a major determinant to keep Veterans out of homelessness
284,000 Veterans are unemployed. Programs to help capable Veterans become employed means Veterans have a purpose and opportunity.
Kids
Families are homeless too, and many shelters don’t cator to children. Kids programs help with the growth of these children.
When a family lives in permanent homeless housing, children events are needed to make the kids feel apart of something.
How Do We Tackle The Homeless Crisis?
Rehabilitative Programs
Sometimes these Veterans are alone in their room for a month straight, Which is terrible for depression and anxiety. We put health at the forefront of every program.

Stabilization is crucial because everyone is at high risk of spiraling downward, possibly back into homelessness, and once we lose them they are hard to get back.

Employment provides routine and purpose. We teach life skills through our programs and are developing programs to help the Veterans attain employment.

We host children specific events to create a learning and social rich environment that offers a community for the kids to grow up in.Â
