According to a recent New York Times article, the number of veterans experiencing homelessness has dropped by an impressive 11% between 2022 and 2023. This marks the largest decrease in over a decade, a significant milestone in the fight to end veteran homelessness. It’s a moment of hope and progress, but it also reminds us that the work is far from over. Too many veterans still lack a stable home, and we can’t stop until every single one has a safe place to call their own.
Our Local Impact
Here at the Homeless ID Project, we’re committed to being part of that solution. In our own offices, we’ve seen a 4% reduction in the number of veterans seeking services. Many of those veterans are now using their identification documents to access housing programs across the state, an essential first step to getting back on their feet. It’s not just a number—it’s a tangible, real-world impact we’re seeing in the lives of people who served our country and now need our support.
The Power of an ID
Securing a valid ID may seem like a small step, but for someone experiencing homelessness, it can be a major barrier to accessing housing, healthcare, employment, and other critical services. That’s where the Homeless ID Project comes in. We help veterans, and others experiencing homelessness, obtain the identification documents they need to navigate the system and take the next step toward stability.
