\nPost-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) plagues the majority of our soldiers and often leads to substance abuse and attempted suicide. A staggering 22 veterans commit suicide daily. This also contributes to the fact that one out of every four homeless men are veterans.<\/p>\n
For years, this problem has been undertreated or ignored entirely. But we have a solution: Veterans Inn<\/a>, a haven for our heroes that helps them get off the streets so they can start making permanent changes in their lives.<\/p>\n We’ve chosen a healing place with lots of natural beauty for our latest project: Lake City, Florida. Located just two hours south of Jacksonville, Lake City is home to beautiful spring-fed rivers and lakes. It also hosts visitors from across the country for its ever-popular Civil War re-enactments, as well as the annual Blueberry Festival. This city is well known for its place in American history, with over 150 years of incorporation. It is a rapidly growing city that offers many dining and shopping opportunities, along with the public transportation to access them.<\/p>\n We wanted to build a home and retreat center in this beautiful and quaint city in order to aid the large population of homeless veterans in the community. The site was formerly a low-budget motel, and we have taken it, updated it and transformed it into a group home. We offer rooms, meals, job-placement assistance and many other helpful tools to our residents.<\/p>\n Our goal with this new endeavor is to try to aide these individuals in recovery and rehabilitation. With your support, we can help our veterans and change these statistics.
