Kansas City area veterans have formed a non-profit corporation, The Veteran’s Community Project, to combat veteran’s homelessness and provide support. Through contributions and partnerships, Veteran’s Community Project is creating communities of tiny homes and on-site services to provide housing stability and address the underlying cause of the Veteran’s homelessness.
Their mission:
• Eliminate veteran homelessness
• Provide transitional housing for veterans
• Provide on-site services such as:
*counseling
*job training
*therapy
*financial management
