VetZero Heroes
Hudson River Housing believes that those who served our country deserve the highest level of care, including quality, affordable housing. We are here to meet the needs of our veteran community through specialized housing, transportation, advocacy and care management.
Through our VetZero Services for Veterans, we’re on a mission to reach ZERO veteran suicides and ZERO veteran homelessness in our community – and hopefully, in our nation. But we can’t do it without your help! Read more about our services for veterans below, and make a contribution to VetZero today.

Heroes Driving Heroes
Many of our veteran residents and community members cite transportation to and from important meetings, such doctors appointments or work interviews, as one of the greatest barriers to their leading a healthy and successful life.
To help solve this problem, we created the VetZero Heroes Driving Heroes Ride Program which provides free car rides for local veterans to useful destinations such as the Veteran Affairs County Office and Castle Point Medical Center.
For more information or to request a ride, call 833-VET-ZERO.
The VetZero Heroes Making Heroes Ride Program is supported in by the Jeannette F. Schlobach Fund of the Community Foundations of the Hudson Valley and private donors. Thank you!
