Creating Communities of Hope, Safety, and Belonging for Veterans
Across the nation, thousands of veterans face the devastating reality of homelessness. For many, the promise of a safe home has been broken. In her powerful new book, Innovative Housing Solutions: A Guide to Veteran Shared Living Models, Yvette Jones Swanson offers more than strategies. She delivers a lifeline.
Drawing on decades of service, advocacy, and lived experience, Swanson presents a groundbreaking blueprint for creating safe and healing housing communities designed specifically for veterans. Inside the book, readers will find six proven veteran housing models including senior co living, sober living, reentry recovery programs, and women’s trauma informed residences. The guide also offers step by step support on design, compliance, funding, staffing, and outreach. Practical tools such as house rules, weekly schedules, and agreement templates are paired with modern strategies like AI driven administrative solutions.
“This is not charity, this is justice,” says Swanson. “No veteran should be homeless, ever.”
As a US Army Veteran, Realtor, and nationally recognized housing advocate who has helped more than five thousand homeless veterans, Swanson writes with urgency and compassion. Her work is not theory. It is lived truth. Having once been homeless herself, she knows the pain of being turned away and the power of being welcomed home.
Innovative Housing Solutions is more than a book. It is a call to action. Whether you are a nonprofit leader, city planner, landlord, or faith-based program operator, this guide empowers readers to transform property into purpose and to create spaces where veterans can rebuild their lives with dignity.
