First Step Back Home

We always try to service our homeless veteran clients. FSBH was founded by a Navy Vietnam Veteran and he has a heart especially for those guys!

Did you know that 20% of the male homeless population are veterans? While substantial progress has been made in reducing veteran homelessness over the past two decades, many veterans continue to face barriers related to housing and reintegration into civilian life.

In addition to the broader causes of homelessness affecting many Americans, some veterans face service-related challenges that increase their vulnerability – for example, 51% of homeless veterans have disabilities.

For many veterans, stable housing is the foundation needed to address healthcare, employment, recovery, and long-term stability. The Care Service Street Outreach team has had the privilege of walking alongside veterans experiencing homelessness in our community and working to get them housed. We are grateful for their service and are honored to play a small part in building the community support system for them.
