Named after two local veterans, the Samuel L. Felton, Jr. & Daniel P. Gillotti Valor Home in Lorain County offers transitional and permanent supportive housing options for homeless male veterans. On site, we offer a 24/7 transitional housing, providing structured and engaging therapies throughout the week, which include art therapy, music therapy, life skills, and stress management. Each veteran is provided with an individual room during their stay and lives at the Valor Home for an average of 6 to 12 months with an end goal of gaining permanent housing. We also offer permanent supportive housing to veterans in Lorain County, with 15 units across three locations.
While living in our facilities, veterans can be provided with bus passes, security deposit assistance, rent assistance, help with finding or maintaining employment, referrals for assistance to obtain benefits, help accessing child care, help with obtaining school supplies, and more. Each resident is also assigned a support worker and has a daily routine that includes self-improvement activities, exercises in self-sufficiency, and personal time.
