Veteran's Community Project

They are tiny house communities that help homeless veterans transition from the street or shelter to their own apartment. While they're living in the tiny home they're also working with different agencies to get them self sufficient. 

I've been following the Kansas City VCP for several years now on Instagram and it's been wonderful to watch veterans come into the program and the transformation from homeless and all that entails to being able to leave and live a quality life.

Sounds like a great program.  Is there sufficient data about their circumstances to possibly identify common factors leading to their homelessness and develop preventive assistance?

I don't know that information but this has always been a problem for combat veterans, especially OEF/OIF combat veterans who were deployed repeatedly, specifically due to post traumatic stress. The VA is a black hole when it comes to treatment of any kind and definitely for PTS. Many vets don't even seek assistance for it for various reasons.

If you want to know what PTS does to a combat veteran feel free to read up on it.
