He hopes to have 17 veterans moved in by the first of the year.'I'm seeing the dream come to reality at this point. It's very humbling,' Roberts said.
'While this project has been in the four to five year process, they've averaged 30 to 60 veterans that have a voucher at any given point in time and no place to live. So, there's definitely a need,' he said.Getting to this point of seeing his vision and dream become reality hasn't come without challenges.After getting approval from Indianapolis to start in 2022, funding has been a huge barrier and Roberts says the pandemic slowed his ability to get supplies.
