Florida is home to many men and women who have honorably served our country in the armed services.  Unfortunately,
there is often a large price to pay for experiencing the harsh reality of war.  As a result, some veterans return to our
country suffering from mental illness and/or the lingering effects of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.   These effects
on the veteran may be compounded by a lack of family and social support networks as they seek refuge in unhealthy
choices leading to addiction and possibly homelessness.   Volunteers of America of Florida serves homeless veterans
through our Housing, Health and Training, Education and Employment  Services.   As part of this innovative program,
veterans can be linked with community resources and employment services such as employment counseling, job training,
case management, as well as veterans-only resources such as support groups. 

Our work throughout the state of Florida touches the mind, body, heart — and ultimately the spirit — of our nations’ veterans,
integrating our compassion with highly effective programs so that these individuals gain an opportunity to reclaim their
lives and overcome any barriers they feel have hindered their success.

Volunteers of America of Florida’s Veterans Mobile Service Center

Volunteers of America of Florida continues to outreach and expand its capacity to elevate the human spirit.  The fact that the
Florida Veterans Mobile Service Center is a program “on wheels” allows the team to go where the need is greatest. 

Owned and operated by Volunteers of America of Florida, the Florida Veterans Mobile Service Center utilizes a 40-foot
state of the art vehicle equipped with a medical and a dental exam room /equipment, bunks and satellite communication
links to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).The MSC is designed to reach out to homeless veterans on the streets
and rural encampments throughout Florida.  This mobile unit offers a unique opportunity to provide homeless veterans
immediate assistance of food and clothing, health screening and assessment, VA benefit determination and counseling,
as well as assessment of housing, mental health, substance abuse, employment, educational and vocational needs.

A team of Volunteers of America of Florida and Department of Veterans Affairs staff provides services. In addition to
crisis intervention and short term counseling, this on-site mobile service unit provides linkage to community services in
order to increase the potential for residential stability.
