The Vet Hunters Project is a non-
profit organization dedicated to
preventing and ending homelessness
for all military Veterans/Families and
individual Americans we meet.
VHP is a grass roots movement that was
started by one Soldier who vowed to Honor
his Fallen Comrades, by serving the Living
and leaving no Veteran behind. Outreach in
the streets was initiated and “Vet Hunting,’
was born. During VHP’s first year of
inception, hundreds of Veterans have
been assisted all over the U.S. The
development of effective Outreach and
what we call “Vetworking,” will continue
to increase in intensity until the
HOMEless epidemic is diminished and
ultimately ended. The words HOMEless
and Veteran, should NEVER go together.
* Daily Search and Rescue Missions
* Establishing counts of HOMEless
Veterans.
* Delivering basic Resources to
HOMEless Veterans consistently in
their Villages.
* Continued “Vetworking” within the
entire community of Veteran Service
Organizations, HOMEless
Coalition partners, Law Enforcement
and Military Leaders.
* Continue to provide housing and
Resources in the four Vet Homes to
the Veterans we currently House.
VHP encourages people to think about what they
can do in the service to others. No matter of your
location, age or income, you have some resource,
knowledge, or ability that can be used to help
someone else. VHP revolves around the idea that
social change starts on the individual level and that
helping even one person can lead to change in an
entire community.

When you think of Vet Hunters think of us
being like the, "e-Harmony' of homelessness.
We connect the homeless person to resources
all while bringing the information to where
the homeless American lives. Here at
Vet Hunters we "Vet Hunt," in areas such as
washes, canyons, streets and under bridges
to name a few. When the Platoon members
are not Vet Hunting, we are raising awareness
all while bringing solutions to ending
homelessness.
Vet Hunters we believe that the words Homeless and
Veterans should never go together. Rather than to
keep complaining, we are doing something about it.
We are successful because we go beyond feeding our
homeless Brothers and Sisters. Vet Hunters gives
respect, love and most importantly, HOPE. Vet
Hunters will partner with anyone aligned with the
same goals and outcome.
