WNEM 5 Focus on 5: Veterans Village Part 1

In this compelling first installment of the Veterans Village series, Catholic Charities of Shiawassee and Genesee Counties introduce their bold vision for a dedicated residential community supporting veterans in need. Viewers will discover the project's impetus, including the unique challenges faced by local veterans, and how the Village aims to create long-term stability through a combination of thoughtfully designed housing, on-site counseling, meaningful community partnerships, and pathways to employment. You’ll hear from stakeholders, project leaders, and veterans themselves as they reflect on what this initiative could mean for the lives of those turned upside down by homelessness. Whether you’re a supporter, partner, or simply curious about best-practice community healing, this video provides an inspiring look at how, when the design, mission, and services align, the built environment can become a powerful agent of change.
