Housing
An Army Major forced to retire after a cancer diagnosis, a family of four with a new baby on the way, and a veteran and single mom who is working toward her dream of home ownership. These are just three examples of the hundreds of military families who have been supported through Operation Homefront's housing programs. We offer four distinct programs to assist military families at every stage of their transition into civilian life.
Transitional Housing (Apartments)
A new program that will provide veterans with a rent/utilities free apartment for one year, while giving them the opportunity to utilize both employment and financial counselor services to help achieve stability and long-term post military success.
