Trust the staff at The Veterans Empowerment Organization of Georgia, Inc., to provide courageous social services for homeless veterans. The goal for the 2010-2011 years is to raise $1,760,000 through public and private donations and organizations, such as the United Way, Churches, Office of Veteran's Affairs, and The Georgia Housing Homeless Finance Corporation. By doing this, we plan on moving forward with our rehabilitation center that will work with a large percentage of Georgia's homeless population. We want to end chronic homelessness among veterans in the greater Georgia area.
Our Center
The newly rehabilitated facility will feature multiple buildings, including a total of 100 single unit beds for homeless veterans, 48 units for permanent affordable housing, and four units of emergency supportive housing. Veterans are also provided a wide range of social services, including on-site program operations, case management, life skills classes, and A/A or N/A meetings.
Transitional Services
While working on ending homelessness among Georgia veterans, we currently provide humanitarian services to veterans who are in immediate need through our outreach program. Our organization will operate a temporary full-service center with a 30 unit-beds at our transitional housing center for veterans who meet criteria for receiving emergency assistance.
Services That We Provide
We provide a range of social services as a part of our program. Our staff helps veterans to understand written correspondence, complete forms pertaining to VA benefits, and interpret Medicare or Medicaid statements. We also provide life skill classes and job coaching in order to help clients make the best of available opportunities and resources. We teach resume writing, job searches, positive attitude development, and increase self-confidence.
