Commissioner Solomeno continued the 21 County Veterans Tour in Hunterdon. Under Governor Mikie Sherrill’s leadership, New Jersey is doing the work to ensure that veteran homelessness is rare, brief, and non-recurring.

He shared dinner and spoke with the residents of Veterans Haven North, a transitional housing community that provides homeless and at-risk veterans with a bridge to education, meaningful work, and stable housing.

If you are a veteran, or know a veteran, in need of housing assistance, contact the NJVet2Vet Helpine 24/7 at 1-866-838-7654

The tour continued in the evening in Somerset County with a visit to Hillsborough Memorial VFW Post 8371. Commissioner Solomeno met with members and answered questions about the work our team has been doing since the New Jersey Department of Veterans Affairs was established in January.

We were joined by Lorrainne Burgess, DVA’s Veterans Service Officer for Somerset County.
