Services for Veterans
Florida is the most veteran-friendly state in the nation, yet there are over 106,000 veterans living below federal poverty levels in Florida. Far too many struggle to overcome barriers that stand between them and a stable, secure life.
Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF)
SSVF programs provide temporary and supportive services for low or no-income veterans and veteran families. These programs aim to promote housing stability through assistance and support services to homeless persons or those at risk of homelessness.
Veteran Home Repairs – Home Depot Mobile Unit
With support from The Home Depot Foundation, VOAFL provides a program for veterans needing home repairs.
This program focuses on addressing the repairs that are most urgently required, prioritizing critical health, safety, and adherence to building codes.
Housing and Supportive Services for Veterans
Volunteers of America of Florida is recognized as the largest provider of supportive housing for veterans in Florida. We are devoted to providing safe, clean, and affordable housing, serving 17 communities from Pensacola to Key West. We provide housing to male and female veterans and their families, supporting their journey toward stability.
Our programs dedicated to veterans are specifically created to assist those struggling with homelessness, elderly veterans, and those coping with emotional, mental, and substance abuse challenges. Transitional housing programs include residential treatment for veterans recovering from substance use disorders. We make sure veterans connect to the benefits they are entitled to, and we use the strong bonds forged between veterans by incorporating mentoring and peer-to-peer support. We provide vital services, including outreach, assessment, emergency support, transitional housing, affordable housing, and case management.
Through dedicated service and compassion, our united support helps our veterans come “all the way home.”
