NO ONE LEFT BEHIND!The National Veterans Foundation’s Homeless Veteran Outreach Program provides outreach missions to areas of Los Angeles with high concentration of homeless people. The missions provide food and water to people in need. The team identifies homeless veterans and works to get them into programs that will get them off the streets.
The NVF Outreach Van visits known communities of homeless vets, but also searches them out on the streets, under bridges and along freeway embankments.

August 23, 2018 at 12:20 amI think It’s appalling to see our vets living in the street, we are becoming a thread rate country, I can’t stand to see it, it’s unbelievable, we can do better than that! we are supposed to be better than that! It should not be tolerated. We are opening our country to strangers and ignoring our own, Charity starts at home!! My husband was in the Air Force for twenty years, he was in the Korean War, and he got a piddly ass retirement he never complained. He started his own business in Alaska, an auto parts business, he was very successful. He corned the market . We need to value our own! We don’t need more people coming to our country, we can’t help our own! We will be a third world country before long . We don’t need to bring people from foreign countries to do our dirty work, we pay them low wedges, it would be better to pay a decent wage and have a better country, the corporations are still going to get rich.
