MCVET
Updated: August 10, 2010
WELCOME TO TEAM MCVET!
The Back on My Feet MCVET team matches non-residential members with American veterans in transition.
The Maryland Center for Veterans Education and Training (MCVET) serves more than 250 veterans daily, through five distinct programs: a day drop-in program, a 13-week emergency program, a transitional housing program that can last up to two years, a follow-up program, and with 80 single room occupancy apartments. A natural progression is to go from the day drop-in program to the emergency program, to the transitional housing program and then to SRO.
