SUMMARY:St Michaels Veteran Center Tour and Meeting
DESCRIPTION:St. Michael’s Veteran’s Center (SMVC) empowers veterans toward healthy reintegration with their families and communities through permanent housing and supportive services.\n\n\n\n\n\nWe provide a dignified place to live and an opportunity for veterans to become their best selves. SMVC’s professional staff customizes wraparound solutions to support veterans’ goals around employment\, physical and mental health\, trauma and addiction management with the means and support necessary to achieve long-term health\, employment and financial stability.\nOur campus is a home and a community where veterans can live their best lives and give back to their community.\n\n\n\nHousing Permanency\n\n\n\nSMVC adopted the Housing First and Permanent Supportive Housing models to have a sustained impact on ending veteran homelessness in Kansas City. These evidence-based models focus on permanent housing with wrap-around support are equally essential components to keep people housed and healthy. Key principles of these models include a low-barrier admission policy\, no programmatic prerequisites\, supportive services are voluntary but are actively used to engage veterans with a focus on housing permanency and wellness\, and veteran residents have full rights\, responsibilities and legal protections. \nSMVC also focuses on a third element that makes us unique – we build a vibrant community that takes care of our neighbors.  The campus is infused with pride. The campus becomes a place for formerly homeless and disabled veterans to live\, and a home and community where they can live their best lives and give back. It provides a unique opportunity to build positive relationships and mutual support among veterans. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur History\n\n\n\nSMVC has been an important piece of Kansas City’s solution to end veteran homelessness by offering permanent supportive housing to over 250 veterans experiencing homelessness or living with a disability. \n\nSMVC’s Housing Phase I with 58 apartment homes opened in 2014\nSMVC’s Housing Phase II with 59 apartment homes and the SMVC Service Center opened in 2016\nSMVC’s Housing Phase III Groundbreaking on June 14\, 2024\, with anticipated completion in early 2026.\nPatriot Park\, a memorial to our community’s veterans\, is being built at the entrance to the campus in 2024.  Learn how you can be involved at https://smvets.org/patriot-park/.\n\nThe development of SMVC is a public-private partnership. This partnership between private firms and community partners capitalized on each member’s experience and dedication to successfully complete SMVC. City\, state\, and federal agencies played an indispensable role in the vision\, coordination\, funding\, and implementation of SMVC’s long-range solutions to meet the needs of those who served in our country’s military.  Each of these partners were committed to creating a sustainable solution that will endure for decades to come.
