Homeless Veterans Housing

About Safe Haven Care Foundation

Percentage wise, veterans are more at risk of experiencing homelessness in large, since they have high rates of post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injuries. The unique challenges they go through present a vast set of hurdles when tackling veteran homelessness.

Veterans make up 8% of the Homeless population in the USA. We offer a home to those who have protected our freedoms, our liberties, and our way of life. We hold the position that anywhere there is a veteran that doesn’t have any place to live, it’s an honor to be able to provide a place for them to rest their heads.

Importance of Housing on Homeless Veterans

Military service members experience a range of unique challenges when shifting out of the military and back into civilian life. From enrolling in health insurance to picking a new career path, most do not receive proper support or training to navigate this transition.

For veterans having trouble with mental health problems or economic difficulty, the risks could be terrible. Did you know that more than 40,000 veterans in America are currently experiencing homelessness? This represents a disproportionate segment of the overall homeless population in the country.

The factors contributing to that phenomenon are complicated. However, a lack of access to full benefits and transitional resources may stop some service members from securing reasonable housing upon exiting from the military.
