Missouri Veterans Endeavor
Missouri Veterans Endeavor (MOVE) is a community for Veterans and their families experiencing homelessness. The key to MOVE's success begins with Veterans living among their peers in a secure and sober environment with on-site services.
Once on site, each Veteran and their family member is assigned a Social Worker for Clinical Case Management services. Together they create and implement a well-defined individualized action plan to address specific obstacles and goals, with the final destination being the Veteran and Veteran family relocating back into the general community. This unique formula allows Veterans and their families to succeed together. MOVE empowers struggling Veterans to rediscover a sense of purpose and optimism and to realize their goal of independent living.
