Help the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Fight Homelessness

Our veterans face difficult times when they return from duty, and while some are capable of settling into their civilian lives, many encounter the same issues we all face: depression, substance abuse, employment uncertainty, and other social problems. 
Unfortunately, these issues can lead many veterans into homelessness, where they are left without a support network.  The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs is determined to help these American heroes by putting them in touch with people and programs that can assist in getting them back on the right track.  To see these efforts in action, we have included a link to a VA Public Service Announcement titled “Success Stories [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oe_UTAFtZk0]. Please feel free to share this video with your readers. 
By spreading the word and urging those in need to call 1-877-4AID-VET, we can help ensure that the words homeless and Veteran are never used together again.
