Support Our Veterans Co (SOVC)

Our Mission: Providing access to housing and supportive services for veterans in need.

Support Our Veterans Co (SOVC) aligned with the Housing First Approach in 2018 with properties in Columbus, Mansfield and Youngstown, Ohio, and the Veteran’s Administration’s HUD/VASH Program.

As of January 2026, the veterans placed in these properties are still in those properties and have turned their lives around becoming productive in their communities, AGAIN!

Founded on service, community, and camaraderie, SUPPORT OUR VETERANS CO is a 501(c)(1) nonprofit driven by one belief: “If you have the ability to change what you see is wrong, then it is our duty to do so.”
