Our Mission: "To Enhance The Quality Of Life For Homeless Veterans On Their Road To Self-Sufficiency."

Through VEO's programs, families are reunited, mental health issues are identified and treated, stable housing is secured, living wage employment is secured, income is increased, and veteran's benefits are accessed.

Our evidence-based Housing First Model provides safe housing as soon as possible to veterans, insuring that basic human needs are met so that wrap around services can be more effective. Homeless veterans need an interwoven approach that provides a safety net of housing, meals, health care, substance abuse and mental health treatment, and after care in addition to job assessment, training and placement assistance. We offer these services in an evidenced based continuum of care.

Our ultimate goal is to provide a caring, supportive environment that allows veterans to rebuild their lives by returning the dignity lost to the circumstances that left them homeless.

There shouldn't be any questions of pre-existing conditions in order to receive services that every homeless veteran deserves. At VEO, our only requirements are that you be a veteran in need of support - and that's it.
