Campaign to help every homeless veteran in King County find a home by the end of 2015
Tuesday, August 11, 2015
King County launched a community-wide campaign to help every local homeless military veteran find housing by Dec. 31, 2015.
The Committee to End Homelessness and its regional partners have already helped more than 1,200 veterans transition to housing since 2014. Operation: WelcomeOneHome encourages property owners and community organizations to help the estimated 662 remaining veterans find housing.
"Many homeless military veterans have a housing voucher in their hands -- they just need a property manager to give them a chance," said King County Executive Dow Constantine.
"Helping every veteran in King County find a safe, affordable place to live by the end of the year requires a community-wide effort, one that I am proud to be a part of."
