Detailed Description:
We provide a comprehensive effort that includes housing and nutritional meals; case management, substance abuse aftercare and mental health counseling. We also assist with job assessment, training and placement assistance.

Veterans First strongly believes the most effective programs for homeless and at-risk veterans are, "veterans helping veterans" in a structured, substance-free environment with fellow veterans who are succeeding at bettering themselves.

Presently we have four transitional houses in the City of Santa Ana: a single working man’s residence with 7 beds; a disability house for men and women with 18 beds; a working single men and women’s house with 18 beds and a house with 10 beds for veterans with dependents.

We supply furnishings as well as deliver weekly food boxes to veterans who have Section 8 housing, or are house-bound (disabled) and/or those at-risk (low-income) veterans and their families.

In October of 2007, an assisted living facility with 24 beds will be opened. We will provide to single homeless and disabled veterans (men and women) a permanent home with 24-hour services to assist them with daily living.
