Disabled Veterans

The Houston Disabled American Veterans service organization is a dedicated force in conjunction with other service organizations, Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Housing and Urban Development, and City of Houston, to eliminate homelessness among military veterans that have served this country. The plight of the homeless veteran has continued to increase in the Houston/Harris County to a staggering 2,800 veterans walking the streets with no way to find the compassionate caring help necessary to eliminate this problem once and for all. The Disabled American Veterans service organization will employ a caring staff of professionals that will work in conjunction with health care professionals at the Department of Veterans Affairs hospital system network. These efforts will provide the homeless veteran medical and psychological treatment to control the mental health issues that blight the homeless veteran to the street in the first place. The Disabled American Veterans service organization will also work with local realtors to find affordable housing rentals that have access to public transportation to aid the veteran in finding employment. This agency will also work in conjunction with the Department of Veterans Affairs to contract employment skills and training to the homeless veteran to help him or her find suitable employment on the road to recovery. The Houston Disabled American Veterans service organization does not employ healthcare professionals at the present time. This agency will place advertisements in the local newspapers and websites on the Internet, such as Monster, and the Disabled American Veterans service organization website. The cost of advertisement will take approximately five percent of the working budget. Advertising on television should be eliminated. The organization is anticipating the employment of at least five to seven part-time Psychologist, two to three part-time physician assistants, and one physician. The
