San Jose veterans home operator dumped over poor conditions
Formerly homeless veterans living in poor conditions at a San Jose complex hope things get better with the change in nonprofit service providers. The property at 10. Kirk Ave. is home to dozens of veterans that have lived with black mildew, fire hazards and unsafe electrical systems, among other problems — issues that have been going on for years. Santa Clara County purchased it last year and promised to turn it around. Homeless Veterans Emergency Housing Facility, a nonprofit led by CEO Irvin Goodwin, provided case management and meals to veterans at the site, but the veterans lived in squalor. Two months ago the Veterans Administration, which had been been funding a majority of the programs, said it would not renew its contract with the nonprofit, and the contract expired on Monday.
