City of New Albany recently issued the following announcement.
Our United States Veterans are volunteers who signed up to potentially give the ultimate sacrifice for our country, and supporting them when they return home is the least we can do.
That’s why the New Albany Redevelopment Commission is allocating $50,000 in American Rescue Plan funding to support Liberty Place, a sober, transitional living environment for veterans. Liberty Place helps veterans return to the community as a positive and productive member of society while maintaining their sobriety.
Liberty Place, operated by Kaiser Home Support Services, receives referrals from Veterans Court, and provides living accommodations for veterans for a period of 12 to 24 months. While staying at Liberty Place, our veterans will receive a private bedroom, meals, transportation to appointments and support groups, and other supportive services. Liberty place has around-the-clock support staff, including a Veteran Program Manager.
“We are so proud of what we have uniquely created in Liberty Place,” stated Kelley Troutman, Executive Director for Kaiser Home Support Services. “You will not find anything else like it in Indiana. We look forward to growing and providing even more services for our veterans in need, and we appreciate the support from the American Rescue Plan and the City of New Albany.”
