The Veteran Homestead Inc. currently operates six programs that serve a multitude of veteran needs, such as a hospice program for homeless soldiers with terminal illnesses, and a working organic farm, which serves as a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility. Our newest program is located in Gardner, MA. This facility includes housing, therapy, counseling, and through a partnership with Mount Wachusett Community College, an education for the veteran and their spouse. The program is the only one of its kind and has the added benefit of being one of the greenest facilities in Massachusetts.

It is the mission of the Veteran Homestead Inc. to offer affordable housing, case management, education and medical and psychological care to veterans that are diagnosed with a terminal illness, are elderly, disabled or are otherwise in need.
