MACV is proud to have spent Homeless Day On The Hill with hundreds of community partners advocating for shelter, affordable housing, income protections, and housing support for the Veterans we serve across Minnesota.

The programming started with a rally where Governor Walz and Lt. Governor Flannigan spoke about the importance of showing up and making our voices heard to support ending homelessness and highlighted the progress made in 2023. After the program, we met with state and house representatives at the Capitol and surrounding buildings. It was a chance for the MACV staff, partners, and clients to share their stories, statistics, and make an impact.
