St. Michael’s Veterans Center (SMVC) provides quality, affordable permanent housing to veterans experiencing homelessness or living with a disability.
Our 24-acre campus with 117 apartment homes is designed to empower veterans toward healthy reintegration with their families and communities by providing safe, permanent housing and supportive services.
Changing Veterans Lives through Housing and Services
SMVC Housing
We strongly believe the only sustainable solution to veteran homelessness is permanent, affordable housing. When SMVC was established 10 years ago, we followed the evidence-based Housing First framework to permanently reduce veteran homelessness. The Housing First model promotes the development of permanent housing with on-site wraparound services focused on sustaining housing and individual well-being. We have embraced this model, which is why 98% of our veterans stay permanently housed and 90% of veteran residents choose to continue living on the campus from year to year. This means more than 250 local veterans have permanent housing and are no longer homeless.
