HOMELESS VETERANSHUD, VA, USICH Announce 17 Percent Decrease in Veteran Homelessness in Past Year
Point-in-Time count estimates 39,471 veterans homeless in January 2016 |
|
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), and the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness (USICH) have announced the number of veterans experiencing homelessness in the United States has been cut nearly in half since 2010. The data revealed a 17 percent decrease in veteran homelessness between January 2015 and January 2016 — quadruple the previous year’s annual decline — and a 47 percent decrease since 2010.
Through HUD’s annual Point-in-Time (PIT) estimate of America’s homeless population, communities across the country reported that fewer than 40,000 veterans were experiencing homelessness on a given night in January 2016. The January 2016 estimate found just over 13,000 unsheltered homeless veterans living on their streets, a 56 percent decrease since 2010. View local estimates of veteran homelessness
The success among veterans can be attributed to the effectiveness of the service providers administering Federal grant programs offered through VA, HUD, and DOL across the country. This continued collaboration and partnership is vital in continuing to move closer toward our shared goal of ending homelessness for all veterans.

MARINE ROSES
In 1778, during the War of Independence, the Marine Corps Rose was dedicated to those Marines who made the Ultimate Sacrifice for their country. This tradition was continued by the French during World War One when the Marines attacked the Germans in the trenches at Belleau Wood, Roses were planted by the grateful French people at the graves of the Fallen Marines. When and where ever you see Leaguers or Young Marines distributing these remembrances take and wear one proudly.
THE PROGRAM: Started by Marine Eddie Gallagher from New York, designed to parallel the VFW "Poppy" program to provide funds for detachments to assist veterans and youth and provide other services to the community.
HOW THE PROGRAM WORKS:
- Health and comfort items for hospitalized veterans.
- Support programs such as bingo or holiday parties for hospitalized or retired veterans in Retirement homes.
- Scholarships
- Assist youth programs
- Humanitarian Aid
HOW THE PROGRAM WORKS:
- Purchase roses from MCL National Headquarters, Ships Store
- Coordinate with local businesses or organizations to set-up a table or booth at their location use a coffee or other type container as a collections can.
- Advertise what the Marine Rose Program is for and what the donations will be used for.
- Conduct each year in conjunction with the Marine Corps Birthday, or whenever you feel it will be most effective.
- Funds should not be used for the detachment's "general fund", to fund Detachment parties, cook-outs, Birthday Balls, etc. They should be used for the purposes stated above.
To order the Marine Roses contact National Headquarters to be put on the list.
