The Harrisburg Veterans Village opened on November 11, 2026, on an 8.5-acre waterfront property along the Susquehanna River. The facility provides permanent housing and support for local veterans.
The site includes a 61-unit apartment complex, 20 Comfort Homes, and a comprehensive supportive service center. More than 80 veterans in need of permanent housing can live on the property.
Tunnel to Towers launched its Homeless Veteran Program in 2022 to eradicate veteran homelessness. The foundation has provided housing assistance and services to more than 20,000 veterans and 10,000 children since the program started.
Harrisburg Veterans Village Provides Housing and Support Services
The Harrisburg Veterans Village center houses apartments, exercise facilities, and a social lounge. Residents also have access to a canteen, business center, and a clothes closet.
On-site services include job training, benefits assistance, mental health support, and addiction treatment. The case management team evaluates the immediate psychological, financial, and emotional needs of each resident.
“Our veterans have given so much of themselves to defend our freedoms,” Seán McCormack said, according to the project materials. “When many of these men and women are in need and living on the streets, it is important for us to have right here in Central Pennsylvania organizations like Tunnel to Towers and the Veterans Village, to help homeless veterans reintegrate into our community.”
Discovery of the 9/11 Memorial
Workers clearing the waterfront lot discovered an overgrown and forgotten 9/11 memorial on the property. Project leaders restored the memorial and placed it next to the village outdoor activities area.
