The homeless veteran issue is a big problem in America. What great strides does the Auxiliary plan to make in this area?
An estimated 150 to 250 thousand veterans are homeless on a nightly basis and according to an annual survey of cities conducted by the U.S. Confernece of Mayors, 16% of the homeless population are veterans. Our members know that they can’t expect to eliminate the homeless problem with the support that they can offer, but that by working together with other organizations dedicated to the same cause, they can hope to improve the situation.
