Army Veteran, Forrest, had been sleeping in his car when he connected with ECHO Veteran Outreach.
The Veteran Services team quickly arranged an emergency short-term hotel stay to get Forrest safely indoors, while they searched for his permanent housing.
Last week, the grateful Veteran was moved into his own apartment…in the exact neighborhood he wanted to live in.
Forrest is very happy about his new home, complete with donated kitchen and food supplies.
Happy Move-in Day, Forrest!
