Today, and every day, we honor our country’s Veterans and active service members, the brave men and women who serve in the most selfless of ways to protect our freedoms 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🇺🇸
 
Here at home, we are proud that Connecticut was one of the first states to eliminate all veteran homelessness by establishing a system for quick rehousing. However, recent data indicates that this progress has faced challenges, with veteran homelessness increasing in the state due to a shortage of affordable housing and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are grateful for continued state-level advocacy for federal funding and resources for programs that assist homeless veterans and legislative efforts to address housing insecurity for veterans. If you or someone you know is having difficulty getting the Veterans’ services they need, please contact Senator Chris Murphy’s office or visit his website here
 
Thank you 🙏🏽 And to the Kiwanis Club of Fairfield for organizing the Field of Valor every year. It’s such an inspiring sight for all in town to see 🇺🇸
Please note our office (including donation drop offs), the Food Pantry and the Community Kitchen will be closed on Tuesday, November 11 in observance of Veterans Day. Regular business hours (including donation drop offs), the Pantry and the Community Kitchen resume Wednesday, November 12. Thank you.
