Dear Friends,

As we reflect on the last year at Homes for the Brave, we recognize a year defined by meaningful achievements.

Our Headquarters Building Project, which began prior to 2020, has culminated in a remarkable facility—unlike any other in Connecticut or the surrounding region—for Veterans transitioning from homelessness. The newly renovated Homes for the Brave now features 11 private suites, a beautiful second-floor library, and a lower-level wellness space complete with fitness, music, reflection, and TV/game rooms. The outside grounds have been transformed into a welcoming plaza, lined with
commemorative bricks and benches.

Thanks to your support, we’ve been able to stand by our Veterans as they face life’s challenges head-on. It has been an extraordinary year for both our Clinical and Vocational Programs. Our Clinical team provided essential care and guidance to 344 Veterans and their family members, helping them heal and rebuild. Meanwhile, our Vocational Program empowered 78% of participating Veterans to take meaningful steps toward independence through job placements, training programs, and college enrollment.

Even amid the disruptions of construction, our dedicated staff remained unwavering in their commitment to guiding Veterans along the path to independence. Simultaneously, our exceptional Board of Directors provided steady leadership—offering insight, dedication, and vision that helped steer us through the year.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to each of you for your steadfast commitment to our Veterans and their futures. Your support makes a lasting impact, and we invite you to continue standing with us as we help those who served reach their fullest potential.
