U.S. VETS Helps Homeless Veterans Become Self Sufficient

(Prescott Daily Courier, AZ) — “A lot of them are camping out, many are older, and most have health issues,” Gatens said. “I basically talk to them about how we can help them, and services they can get through us and the VA when they’re ready.”  U.S. VETS is a transitional housing facility with 58 beds where veterans can stay for as long as two years as they work their way toward self sufficiency with individual case management, access to healthcare, resolving legal matters, stabilizing mental health, maintaining sobriety, working through transportation issues, and finding and maintaining employment, said Tim Prater, program director with U.S. VETS.

About the Military

U.S. Military 101 The "Basics" of the United States Military Reserve members fall within one of the four main branches of the military: Army, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Navy. Each branch has a group of reserves, but only the Air Force and Army attain a National Guard. In times of conflict and war, the President can call to duty all members of the reserves, but requires state approval for activation of the National Guard.
