At Housing Our Homeless Vets, we refuse to accept veteran homelessness as a part of our culture. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, our mission is to empower veterans who have fallen into homelessness by providing them with long-term housing and access to community support. By providing domestic and employment opportunities, our services encourage independence, camaraderie, and improved mental health. We consider it an honor to help homeless veterans reclaim their dignity, community, and hope for the future, no matter their length of service, type of discharge, or any other obstacle. We will use every available resource to help achieve our goals, which include:
Our founders are committed to ending veteran homelessness in America, but we are taking our vision a step further. Instead of relocating veterans to isolated apartment buildings across the city, we believe that veterans’ mental health needs are best met in communities of other veterans. For this reason, we are building an all-veteran community of ADA-compliant “tiny houses” to provide veterans with homes, resources, and a thriving community of people who understand their struggles.
- Empowering veterans who have fallen into homelessness by providing them with long-term housing
- Building an all-veteran community encouraging a renewed sense of family, health, and camaraderie
