‘Veterans Community Project’ focus of Virtual Planners Gathering

Oakland County Planning, Zoning, and Land Use will conduct a Virtual Planners Gathering on “The Veterans Community Project: Tiny Houses, Big Impact” Wednesday, April 22, from 10 to 11 a.m. via Zoom.

The Veterans Community Project (VCP) was founded in 2016 by combat veterans who saw firsthand the challenges of returning to civilian life and who shared a dedication to do better for those who served our country.?Their solution to veteran homelessness is bold, yet simple: 240 square feet of dignity with 1:1 support to help veterans get back on their feet—and continue standing. 

Since welcoming their first residents in 2018, VCP now has six locations throughout the U.S. and has shown an 85% success rate. 

Speaking at the program will be Ben Hendershot, vice president, Veterans Community Project, Kansas City, MO.
