The housing crisis isn’t about finding one right answer—it’s about asking the right questions and integrating proven, place-based solutions that work at the local level. Rehab Warriors is upskilling veterans into the workforce of development and housing, while Rebuilding the Fort is on the front lines—bringing solutions to the table, facing off with government, and creating a platform for collaboration.
This session will explore how cities, developers, and agencies can partner with veteran-led initiatives to build a stronger, more capable workforce, bridge policy and execution, and implement tested, place-based solutions that are already working across the country. We are not replacing developers—we are integrating veterans into the solution and fostering collaboration between local governments, industry leaders, and community stakeholders to drive meaningful change.
