Six years in the making, Veterans’ House in Ottawa aims to provide living space to forty Veterans in need by the end of March 2021. It’s rewarding when you see... the smiles, says Joel VanSnick, Legion District G Commander, and an integral part of the Legion’s support efforts. The Legion’s Ontario Command took an active role in locating homeless Veterans to move into the new home. One person was living out of a car, and is 72, says VanSnick. A Legion committee will also be formed to help residents with any needs. During regular business hours, peer support staff will be in the building to help residents navigate their new lives whether it be directing them to the nearest grocery store, teaching them to cook, or helping them find an accredited mental or physical health program. They will get help filling out benefit application forms for assistance from Veterans Affairs Canada, and job recruiters will share employment opportunities.
