## Resource

New Jersey just hit a major milestone: “functional zero” veteran homelessness, meaning no veteran is left without a home — a triumph of the $30 million Bringing Veterans Home Initiative launched in 2024. Since then, over 25,000 vets have found permanent housing, with more moving in each month than becoming homeless. Officials stress that caring for service members isn’t an afterthought — it’s a core responsibility. Now, the focus shifts to sustaining this success and ensuring every veteran has lifelong access to safe, stable housing.
