On Wednesday, a panel and community discussion will be held at the Main Library in downtown Jacksonville where the issue of veteran and civilian homelessness will be discussed along with solutions that have proven to be successful in other cities.
The event is part of the Built for Zero Northeast Florida’s Week of Valor: Progress Towards Functional Zero. The group is comprised of local and federal organizations working to end chronic and veteran homelessness by January 2020. The nationwide effort is now focused on Duval, Clay and Nassau counties.
