Helping veterans find stability, purpose, hope and a path forward one step at a time. Veterans Path to Hope operates New Horizons, a 20-bed transitional living shelter in Hebron, IL for homeless veterans who benefit from a more intensive period of support to reintegrate back to their own housing situation. Veterans in the program can access a variety of supports such as employment assistance, recovery support, transportation to work, reconnecting with family, and daily living skills as needed. In Crystal Lake and Grayslake, veterans and families are welcomed to call or stop in at the drop-in resource center, staffed by veteran peer support specialists. The peer support group is there to assist veterans in need, whether the need is for support, information, referrals, or the relief of having coffee with someone who speaks the same language. The drop-in center includes a food pantry for veterans, monthly food truck, and counseling support. The agency also offers veteran-specific employment assistance, helping with resume translation, getting prepared for employment, and finding/keeping employment.
