U.S. Rep. Mike Thompson (CA-5) today announced a $145,101 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) Project Based Voucher grant for the Housing Authority of the City of Napa. The grant will provide 17 Section 8 VASH vouchers for the Valley View Senior Homes.

"No veteran who served our nation in uniform should live without a roof over their head and the benefits they've earned when they take the uniform off," said Thompson. "We have a responsibility to those who served, and making sure they have adequate housing and access to VA services is at the top of the list. These grants will provide veterans with homes and better the lives of them and their families. It's a proud day for our county."
