Many homeless veterans don't bother applying for VA benefits and many still don't know that benefits are available. The VA can't go it alone. Veterans are going to have to establish community housing and educational program for fellow homeless veterans. I have a nonprofit called AboutFace-USA.Org, which is in the process of talking to the local County politicians to determine what we can do together to help our veterans. Please feel to check us out at http://www.aboutface-usa.org. We are willing to share ideas.
