Veterans Housing Update
Over the years there hasn’t been that much to talk about when it came to housing for Veterans but as the months and years go by things are beginning to look up for those who have protected our country and are still continuing to do so. With Veteran’s Day being this week, it seems a good time to look at a few ways that veterans housing is improving for the better.
- Many companies are beginning to get on the band wagon of helping out veterans in our country. One of those companies is the Arizona Fisher House. This facility will provide housing for vets and their families who are being treated in medical facilities in Tucson Arizona. This housing will be temporary while the vets are being treated but it will be provided at no charge to the veterans.
- Homes For Heroes is an awesome program that allows veterans as well as other home town heroes a chance to own a home of their own. In order to find out more about homes for heroes you can look them up online. This program offers great discounts to veterans and their families so that their dream of owning their own home can become a reality.
- Marmion Apartments in Los Angeles is offering housing for 24 veterans and their families as well as 24 low income families. There are almost 3,000 homeless veterans in Los Angeles alone. That number is not acceptable and this is one of the reasons why changes are finally being made.
- In Green Bay Wisconsin Veteran’s Manor will be opening in June for Veterans who need a place in which to live. This location will offer 50 one bedroom apartments in which to house 50 veterans and their families.
- If Tennessee is where you call home you may want to check out Patriot Place which is a 34 unit apartment complex for Vets and their families.
These are just a few ways that things are beginning to look up in the housing market for veterans. I believe as time goes on we will see programs like this in our local community. After all veterans have done and how much they and their families have sacrificed their lives for our country’s freedom, this is the least that can be done. If you see a Veteran today, be sure to offer them your sincere thanks and appreciation for your freedom!
