American Family Housing (AFH) -- the visionary nonprofit organization dedicated to permanently ending the cycle of homelessness throughout Orange, San Bernardino and Los Angeles counties -- is pleased to announce it has been granted a rental housing loan for new construction from the Veterans Housing and Homelessness Prevention Program (VHHP) in the amount of $1,792,198. In support of the bold and innovative new AFH housing project underway in Midway City, Calif. called Potter's Lane, this significant VHHP award from the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development and the California Department of Veterans Affairs will serve as core funding for the energy-efficient and sustainable housing site for veterans. Volunteers of America (VOA) partnered with AFH at the end of 2015 in support of the new construction project, which is quickly gaining wide support from public, private and government organizations alike.
The VHHP award comes in tandem with the generous gift of $45,000 from the Southern California congregations of Trabuco Presbyterian Church in Trabuco Canyon and Presbytery of Los Ranchos in Anaheim; a $5,000 contribution from the members of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church in Newport Beach; and critical approval from the County of Orange and the Veterans Administration of Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) rental subsidies.

This is excellent news! It is hard to transition people from the streets into housing. Some have lived like this for years, and do not even know what a ceiling over their head would be like. Good to see that people (and organizations) still care.
