By Bob Katzen

Gov. Maura Healey announced a $20 million campaign to end veterans’ homelessness in Massachusetts.

“Our administration is committed to making Massachusetts a national leader in veterans services,” said Gov. Maura Healey. “Today, we are proud to launch the largest investment in our state’s history to end veteran homelessness in Massachusetts. It is through this initiative that we will work to ensure that every veteran in our state has a safe and stable place to call home.”

“This campaign signifies a monumental commitment to addressing veteran homelessness in Massachusetts,” said Secretary of Veterans Services Jon Santiago. “Our mission is clear: bring veteran homelessness to functional zero and establish the necessary infrastructure to sustain this achievement.”

“No one who served our country should ever worry about having a roof over their heads,” said Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll. “This campaign acts on our administration’s shared commitment to restore dignity, provide hope and keep a promise to our veterans that they will never be forgotten or left behind. As the daughter of a veteran, I appreciate the positive impact this initiative will have on all of Massachusetts’ veterans.”
