In January 2023, the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) estimated that there were over 35,000 homeless veterans sleeping on American streets. The number of homeless veterans rose more than 7% between 2022 to 2023, the largest yearly increase in more than a decade. Here in Tucson, the organization Esperanza En Escalante are helping hundreds of homeless veterans find their way into permanent housing, and their way back into our country that they so honorably served.
