COPD Boot camp for Veterans'
Our COPD Bootcamp is a support group for Veterans after they have been diagnosed with COPD. We recognized that sixty-nine percent of deployed military personnel experienced respiratory illnesses and symptoms while in service. Our COPD Bootcamp provides an opportunity for peer-to-peer support.
Transitional Housing
The Havasu Community Health Foundation provides a supportive housing program and independent living for Veterans who are at risk of becoming homeless. We are pleased to be working with the Department of Housing and Urban Development to provide affordable housing, utilities, and grocery delivery for senior Veterans who are disabled or without transportation. Our program is designed to improve the quality of life for local Veterans.
“Veterans know better than anyone else the price of freedom, for they’ve suffered the scars of war. We can offer them no better tribute than to protect what they have won for us.”
President Ronald Reagan, 1983, in a radio address to the nation.

Backpack Program
For street or desert sleeping homeless Veterans, we will meet and serve the Veterans where they are by providing them with Backpacks filled with weather protection items, hygiene, and first aid supplies. In addition, we will provide them with water and food. Upon request, we will provide our backpacks for distribution to the jail, the court, the emergency room at the hospital, and the Vet Center.
