The Heroes Landing onsite Step Up team consists of Program Manager, Moises Lopez and Residential Life Skills Coordinator, Angelica Zamora, both of whom are veterans themselves. This helps them connect with the vets on a deeper level. “We speak the same language, we understand their experience and what they are going through,” Angelica says.

Whether it’s learning how to use the coffee maker in the communal kitchen or submitting forms to the DMV, the Step Up team goes above and beyond to assist the veterans. “I don’t see this as work,” Moises, a US Marine Corps veteran, says, “I see it as building a community.”

Heroes Landing, our new property with Jamboree Housing Corporation, is exclusively for veterans experiencing #homelessness & provides permanent supportive housing & supportive services. The Step Up Life Skills team, Long Beach VA, Strength In Support, and Goodwill all have offices in the building.

Director of Step Up Los Angeles Intensive Case Management Services (ICMS) Project-Based Vouchers Marc Van-Asselt explains Step Up’s supportive “strength based” service model, “Onsite support helps Veterans who face the most complex challenges to live with stability, autonomy, and dignity. It improves housing stability, employment, mental and physical health as well as school attendance. It also reduces active substance abuse.”
