This program is free to veterans who struggle with alcohol and drug abuse, called Contingency Management (CM).

Together, in light of the current worldwide crisis, the Association of Defense Communities (ADC), Blue Star Families, and participants of the White Oak Collaborative have formed the COVID-19 Military Support Initiative (CMSI) to provide resources and expertise to support communities, states, and military families, including:
Comprehensive coverage of the COVID-19 crisis through a new daily publication, building on ADC’s widely read On Base daily newsletter; the newsletter will feature updates on substantial national stories and local coverage of how our military is responding
Virtual town halls on critical issues impacting our military, defense communities, and their families during this time
Military Community and Family Organizations and experts convening to identify and advance promising practices and policy solutions and pinpoint and track ongoing issues
An ever-evolving platform for sharing information and resources and a repository to capture and document promising practices and lessons learned

Policy recommendations developed and shared at the local, state, and federal level
In 2018, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development gave 87,000 vouchers to help veterans find permanent housing
HUD-VASH provides veterans who are homeless with rental assistance vouchers for privately-owned housing
SSVF helps find affordable housing options for veterans through various non-profits and grantees
After their hard work and sacrifice while serving the U.S., veterans return home in need of housing and assistance to re-enter into civilian life once again. There are different veteran housing assistance programs to help them find affordable permanent housing.
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) estimates that 40,056 veterans are homeless on any given night. And just in 2018, HUD has allocated more than 87,000 vouchers to help veterans find permanent housing across the U.S.
Another report showed that rental assistance programs, like public housing and section 8, has helped more than 340,000 low-income veterans, reducing homelessness within the group by 33 percent.
When returning from active duty and transitioning to civilian life, one of the first things a soldier must do is find a job. While military service provides many critical skills that can translate well into civilian jobs, sometimes the transition itself and communicating those skills to a non-military hiring manager is a big challenge to overcome.
Sadly, for many veterans, this can be a battle, even after fighting for our country for years. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the unemployment rate of veterans is dropping, declining from 4.3 percent to 3.7 percent in 2017. However, of those veterans who are unemployed, 59 percent are between the ages of 25 and 54, which indicates the working-age veterans are the ones having the biggest problem finding work. Also, even younger veterans, those between the ages of 18 and 25, continue to have a hard time both finding and keeping a job.
That may sound like poor statistics, but the truth is that programs assisting both veterans and employers are helping to make a difference. The key is to help veterans connect with those programs so they can find the training they need and the available jobs that are hiring people with their skill sets.
Also, some jobs are perfectly suited for members of the military. All it takes is a little knowledge about how to translate military skills to the civilian workforce and find jobs that build on your skills. This guide is designed to help today’s veterans overcome the challenge of finding a job, translate their abilities into marketable skills, and land a civilian job where they can thrive.

Giving America's Heroes the Support They Deserve
Returning to civilian life after a successful career in the military is not always the smooth transition veterans imagine it will be. Veterans return to their hometowns only to find that their jobs are no longer waiting for them, or their service-related injuries or trauma make it impossible to hold a steady job. This can create a spiral of problems, making it challenging to thrive. Through no fault of their own, many veterans find themselves without a place to live, even after dedicating part of their lives to serve their country.
Community Support for Veterans
ABOUT US
The Real Warriors Campaign is a multimedia public awareness campaign through the Psychological Health Center of Excellence (PHCoE) to support the promotion of psychological health, reduce stigma of psychological health concerns and encourage help seeking behavior for service members, veterans and their families.
Veterans are those in the community who deserve the most honor and respect.
They have spent much of their lives protecting and serving the country and should be honored as a result.
Unfortunately, in the United States there appears to be a disconnection between what veterans deserve to receive, and what civilian life is really like for them.
Many struggle financially because they lack the services they need when difficult times strike.
In fact, according to the National Alliance to End Homelessness, 24.8 out of every 10,000 veterans in the United States are homeless. Many more are struggling, though they have not yet become homeless.
While these numbers are slowly improving, chronic homelessness remains a problem for a significant number of veterans.

How to Stop Living Out of Your Car
The general consensus among aid workers over the past ten years supports the idea that there a substantial, growing number of American people living out of their cars.
TIME talks about living in your car as a “last rung of dignity and sanity above the despair of the streets.”
Today's veteran faces many challenges when returning home from war and working to integrate back into normal society.
In addition to the regular challenges of getting back to civilian work, today's vet faces a society that may not understand what happened on the battlefield or why it happened.
The atrocities of modern war times are difficult for the modern individual to understand. This can leave a veteran feeling alone and disconnected.
From Construction Sites to Constructed Housing:
With projects commonly spanning multiple years, generally offering quiet at night, and typically containing portable restrooms and even sometimes electrical outlets, it’s no secret that unsheltered homeless people often spend the night on construction sites, hiding out underneath scaffolding or big equipment.
However, this is a dangerous practice – and it’s on the rise.

Why did you join the military?
Chances are the answer to that is quite complex.
It likely includes a measure of having a desire to serve our country combined with the potential financial benefits of a military career.
Succeeding in the military can be a very financially rewarding career path, and also brings the satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to serve your country.
As a military service member, there are numerous benefits beyond your paycheck that you can also enjoy.
Veterans comprise more than 30 percent of all mesothelioma cases in the United States.
Because all branches of the military relied on asbestos in the past, and builders overseas still do, veterans are more likely than others to develop asbestos-related diseases.

The Paralyzed Veterans of America
(Paralyzed Veterans), a congressionally chartered Veteran service organization founded in 1946, has developed a unique expertise on a wide variety of issues involving the special needs of our members
– Veterans of the Armed Forces who have experienced spinal cord injury or dysfunction, (disease, MS, ALS).
As technology advances and our military becomes more intelligent, the face of war has changed in our world. Yet the toll that combat can take on those serving in our military is still a growing problem.
Many of our nation’s bravest have come home from foreign lands where they were dealing with unknown dangers and putting their life on the line on a daily basis. Some of the memories they bring home with them are horrific in nature and can cause many issues if left untreated.
Among the most prevalent of these concerns are physical pain from injuries and mental illnesses such as PTSD. Over time, many of these brave men and women who fought for our freedom find themselves fighting for freedom from alcohol and substance abuse.
If you or a loved one are a veteran who has returned home only to find yourself fighting this new battle against substance abuse, you are not alone. There is help available to you right now.
Everyone knows about the importance of sleep and its role in our physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Unfortunately, though, getting the sleep we need is not always an easy task, and it can be an especially vexing problem for our veterans.
