Helping Heroes operates an Emergency Shelter for Veterans.  Located in the heart of downtown Wheeling, West Virginia, the shelter serves Veterans in Hancock, Brooke, Ohio, Marshall, and Wetzel counties.  The ability to house veterans in our own emergency shelter allows us to make quick contacts and reduce barriers for communication with the Veterans as we assist them with finding and maintaining permanent housing.  It creates a continuum of care in which a Veteran can progress from the shelter bed, through assessment into our Service Intensive Transitional Housing (GPD) or SSVF program.  We can quickly provide intensive case management and provide the maximum level of support to the Veteran.

This program facilitates individual stabilization and movement to permanent housing as rapidly as clinically appropriate.

• Provide safe, secure emergency shelter.
• Create a housing plan that addresses barriers to permanent housing. (This may include addressing mental health, substance abuse, and trauma.)
• Provide the essential services these individuals need to obtain and maintain permanent housing.
