Earlier this week, the Columbia VA Health Care System took action to support unsheltered Veterans during a community Outreach Surge Event in the Midlands and Upstate.
VA staff worked alongside community partners to meet Veterans where they are, offering connections to housing assistance, health care, and critical support services. These proactive outreach efforts help ensure Veterans experiencing homelessness are aware of—and can access—the resources available to them.
Ending Veteran homelessness requires collaboration, compassion, and consistency. Events like today’s outreach surge are an important step in connecting Veterans to stability, safety, and hope.
If you or someone you know is a Veteran in need of assistance, help is available.
No Veteran should face homelessness alone.
