The JFCS Operation Military Assistance Program (OMAP) offers case management and financial assistance to very low-income veterans and their families in Charlotte, DeSoto, Manatee and Sarasota Counties who are homeless or who are about to become homeless to enable them to obtain or maintain stable, permanent housing. Made possible through a grant from the Veterans Administration and support from local donors, the OMAP program aims to fulfill JFCS’ mission to empower individuals and families toward self-sufficiency. “JFCS is proud to be participating in the Patriot Plaza Community Dedication,” Patriot Plaza, designed, constructed and fully funded by The Patterson Foundation, features significant art installations and will honor veterans and their families for generations to come. The amphitheater was created through a first-ever public-private partnership with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs – National Cemetery Administration and is the first enhancement of its kind out of 131 national cemeteries across the country.
