The Mission Continues will assist in Removing debris and helping in revitalizing the historic site of CASA de ROSA located in the West Adams district north of USC The campus will provide 37 affordable housing units for veterans and their families and restore a piece of Los Angeles history. Casa de Rosas is in the National Register of Historic Places, a federal database of sites with intrinsic historical value including the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty. The renovation of the Casa de Rosas Campus will feature multiple veteran-specific components for its occupants. The new home will also have teams available to counsel veterans and guide them into new careers. While providing care for any children, services within the campus prioritize assisting homeless veterans in reintegrating into “mainstream society.” The affordable housing project intends to provide a temporary home for homeless veterans as they transition into a more stable lifestyle. Ward Economic Development Corporation, a nonprofit organization focused on improving Los Angeles through affordable housing and community service, is leading the project. “You’re restoring a very significant historic building in this neighborhood.”
