Fortitude Veterans Village
220 N Harney Avenue, Burns, Oregon 97720
Being built to give homes to Veterans in Burns, Oregon, Fortitude Veterans Village is scheduled for completion in 2025. It will bring 20 units of affordable housing to the area. We're thankful for our partners, Harney County Senior Center, for the opportunity to bring more affordable housing to our neighbors in the Northwest.
Project Details
The Fortitude Burns Veterans Village is a 20-unit development of one-bedroom townhome units for Veterans in Frontier Oregon, earning 30%-60% of the area median income (AMI). This development will serve low and very-low-income Veterans in Harney County through reduced rents, amenities, and resident services. The development is a response to the unique needs of low-income Veterans in Frontier Oregon as identified by the Developer, the Harney County Senior and Community Services Center.
Trauma-informed design principles contributed to the planned development, with exterior entrances (no corridors) and many units with multiple entry and exit options. A large, central courtyard will serve as a community gathering place for residents to spend time outside and foster community building. A separate community building provides indoor space for residents and service providers to meet individually or in groups. In addition, the Harney County Senior Center, Veterans Service Officers, and other local organizations will provide comprehensive resident services.
