How one Kansas City nonprofit is providing a solution for unhoused veterans

The Veterans Community Project, located at 89th and Troost, is dedicated to moving unhoused veterans off the streets. The organization owns a village of tiny homes that houses veterans free of charge and without a deadline to move out.
The residents that greet you at the Veterans Community Project may not walk on two feet.

They may walk on all four.

“There’s a lot of veterans that prefer to stay on the streets instead of leaving their animal behind,” said Kelly Seward, the director of communications for the Kansas-City based nonprofit. “So we’ve got a lot of critters around here.”
