Alicia
Alicia said I was homeless for years in many different towns after being discharged from the Military. I have finally obtained my first apartment, but the place was empty. Just like the years of my life before.
How was I going to cook, clean put my clothes away and even sit down. Then my EOC worker called the Veterans Miracle Center.
Now I have my first fully furnished apartment.
Thank You Alicia for your service to this Great Country and thank you Rick for helping her out to.

My experience with the Veterans Miracle Center has been very good, very encouraging, and a blessing to me and my family. I am grateful to the VMCE for many things, most of all, ” Welcome Home To Hope ” I experienced that on my first visit and experience each time I come in.
I cannot thank the Veterans Miracle center enough for their support, help, and encouragement. I am so thankful for this resource, and for the volunteers and staff.
They are very caring, helpful, understanding and compassionate.
I receive help and encouragement from people who understanding who have been in my shoes and who knows and understands my struggles.
