VETS HOME

As we have seen at the train park the many vets that are homeless or near homeless
our desire to arrest this condition becomes more intense. There are at any given point in time a large contingent of veterans on the streets of Albuquerque. The
figures being adjusted, depending on whom you talk to are somewhere in the area of
about 1200. Currently anywhere between 40 and 65 can expect support and service
without some form of conditional program system or personal regimentation. Knowing
the need for these programs for those that have alcohol and/or drug abuse problems
is a good thing. And is necessary to that cause as stated. However the remaining
veterans who don,t have these challenges seem to be left out in the cold. It is our desire to seek and assist in this endeavor to address this need. Our hope is that
a beginner location in some form might obtained rehabbed and used for this purpose.
How we obtain a location is yet up for grabs. The choices are either a donated property or an abandoned one. Surly other vets and their families can see the need
to support this action. It is our HOPE that you can too. May our veterans find safe
haven from the streets. Boo Yada.
