Sept. 23 (UPI) -- The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs said Tuesday it's using tens of millions of dollars in grant money to well over 100 U.S.-based organizations to help homeless veterans.
The VA stated that about $84 million in grant money will be given to about 176 groups throughout the United States that have the purpose of helping homeless U.S. veterans transition back into permanent housing, as well as that help those at risk of having no place to call home.
"No one who served our nation in uniform should go without shelter," said U.S. Veterans Affairs Secretary Doug Collins.
Some $42 million in grants will cover legal services through the VA's homeless veterans and at-risk grant program.
