Last year, there were 356 veterans waiting for Boston Housing Authority units and 256 on the Section 8 voucher list, according to BHA, which gives preference to homeless veterans, then homeless people, then veterans.
Construction could start as early as next spring. A handful of the 24 units will be set aside for homeless vets who have behavioral health issues. But Brown deflected neighborhood fears that she wants to build a homeless shelter.
“It is all permanent apartments for veterans,” she said. “It’s not a homeless shelter.”
Is MSAC interested in supporting programs for Housing affordable low income Veterans? This is a controversial one at the old Police Station Site in So Boston
REFER TO HOUSING COMMITTEE !!!!
