dates for the builds are solidified. For more information on
volunteering or contributing to this effort, contact CIVC using the

Founded in December of 2018, it is the
vision of the Central Illinois Veterans Commission to provide
veterans with tools and support systems to eliminate barriers in
obtaining permanent housing. To date, CIVC has built and rewarded 7
homes in total in Lincoln and Atlanta. The next homes are slated for
Lincoln. Find out more at civeteran.org.
