[August 08, 2024]   The Central Illinois Veterans Commission (CIVC) is now taking applications for consideration in the awarding of two new homes currently being constructed in Atlanta, Illinois.

Eligible veterans, or those that want to nominate veterans for this opportunity may apply online at https://www.civeteran.org/tiny-home-application  or call the CIVC office at 217-605-8157. To be eligible to receive a mortgage-free home through this program, one must be a veteran who has been honorably or generally discharged, not currently own a home, and have the means to pay the other expenses associated with home ownership, including utilities, insurance and real estate taxes.

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, five homes have been completed and awarded to deserving veterans. Find out more about CIVC at https://www.civeteran.org/.
