ORHF has helped hundreds of homeless and at-risk Veterans secure safe, permanent homes – and overcome the root causes of homelessness and instability in their lives. Staff work remotely (they always have), arranging long-term shelter until permanent housing is found (the outcome for 90% of clients). Case managers coordinate with the VA, state and local agencies, and faith-based organizations, to secure everyday basics like furniture and food, as well as critical services like healthcare and counseling for PTSD or substance abuse. Employment is crucial for long-term stability, so ORHF connects Veterans to education and training assistance, and helps them apply for jobs. During the pandemic, it has seen an increase in clients seeking to find housing or avoid eviction and looks forward, as the world opens up, to offering them the additional help they need, and deserve, from a grateful nation.
