The expansion of a new, Texas-based pilot program will help wounded veterans find housing that meets their needs. "Helping a Hero" has been working for the past year to provide adaptive homes to wounded veterans of the war on terrorism through its Wounded Hero Home Program. All the houses the group provides are part of planned communities. The group also offers ongoing workshops to help returning veterans reintegrate into the community and works to connect them with community service organizations. For more information, visit the Helping a Hero website.
To find career resources for the severely injured, visit the Military.com Severely Injured Career Center.
