HOUSING
VEO's evidence-based Housing First model provides veterans with immediate, safe emergency housing to ensure stabilization, basic human needs are met, and wrap-around services can be implemented. At VEO, there are no barriers to getting a room or apartment, regardless of drug use, criminal history, or other typical barriers. If they are homeless or at risk of being homeless, veterans can find emergency beds at VEO. Once stable, veterans are assisted in securing long-term permanent housing.

UNSHELTERED TO HOUSED
The VEO Unsheltered to Housed (U2H) Program breaks the cycle of homelessness by offering veterans the support they need to secure employment and permanent housing. With a strong foundation provided by the U2H Program, we're not just offering beds; we're offering a bridge to a brighter future.

PERMANENT HOUSING
Veterans are able to take advantage of permanent housing on our campus. VEO is moving towards expanding our affordable housing model to the city and the counties we serve. Our goal is to allow veterans to become economically self-sufficient through our approach. This allows our veterans to pursue living in communities in and around Atlanta. Veterans’ support and amenities may include rental assistance, sobriety support, individual and group counseling, peer support, and job assistance.
