Applying For Transitional Housing
The objective of Veteran's Haven Inc's "transitional housing" program is to provide support to veterans who require a safe haven while they work to improve their lives. It is NOT a shelter, but part of a program that enables honorably discharged veterans to transition from homelessness to a place of their own. Because it is a program, there are rules and criteria that applicants must meet to be eligible for this service.
All applicants must be honorably discharged veterans
All applicants must be goal oriented - If you just want a place to stay, we won't accommodate you
All applicants must be working, actively seeking work, or eligible for an income through Social Security or VA
No alcohol or drug use - Veteran's Haven has a "zero tolerance" policy and all clients are randomly tested at our discretion
Because we are a HUD subsidized facility, all clients are required to pay a 30% fee from their income to stay in our program
Because this is a group environment, all clients must be able to get along with each other
All clients are responsible for maintaining the cleanliness of our facilities and properties
All clients are required to be at Veteran's Haven Inc's Outreach Center Monday through Friday 8:30 am till Noon
Curfew is 8pm
No cell phones allowed - We have phones for your use
All clients are required to save their money towards transitioning back into life on their own
All clients will obey the rules and instructions of the staff of Veteran's Haven Inc, or face termination from the program
Be Warned
We are located in outer Wayne County, so if your personal business requires you to spend a great deal of time in Detroit or other surrounding counties there's a good chance that you won't be happy here. We do not have the means to transport our clients back and forth to the Ann Arbor VA, and it's a long bus ride to the Detroit VA Hospital. We do not allow clients to "roam the streets" or "hang out". You're here because you want to get your life back on track.
