Michigan Veterans Foundation 

Nationwide, an average of one-third of America’s homeless are veterans, yet veterans only make up approximately 8% of the total population.   This means that on any given night, as many as 250,000 veterans are living on the streets or in shelters and perhaps four times as many experience homelessness at some point during the course of a year.  

These men and women who risked their lives to ensure our continued freedoms now don’t even have a place to call their own! 

The Michigan Veterans Foundation (MVF) is a non-profit agency whose overall objective is to fill the gaps that currently exist in providing services to Michigan’s veterans.  MVF’s main project is the Detroit Veterans Center - a well-planned and well-supported community effort.  The Foundation has been asked to expand its services to several other cities in Michigan and currently has plans to open other facilities strategically located throughout the State of Michigan.  

Purpose of the Detroit Veterans

Center

The Detroit Veterans Center is a transitional housing facility and resource center. The DVC provides the skills and confidence needed for homeless veterans to break the cycle of homelessness and return to independent living.  This includes the specific goals of residential stability, increased skill level, increased income, and greater self-determination to obtain and maintain self-sufficiency.
