An organization that helps veterans in Butler and many surrounding counties has announced that they have received another large funding increase.
The Veterans Leadership Program recently received over $1 million from the Veterans Administration towards the Supportive Services for Veteran Families program.
This money will assist unsheltered veterans in 18 counties including Butler into hotels and permanent housing, allow veterans to access rental assistance, and help veterans avoid becoming homeless.
Veterans Leadership Program has been helping local veterans through this outreach since 2012.
