Gov. Katie Hobbs will join U.S.VETS Prescott, Gorman & Company and community leaders on May 16 at 11 a.m.to celebrate the groundbreaking of Fort Whipple, a new permanent supportive housing development for homeless and at-risk senior veterans and their families on the Northern Arizona VA Health Care System campus located at 500 Highway 89 North in Prescott.
Fort Whipple’s historic officers’ quarters—which are being converted into 23 apartments—are expected to be ready for occupancy in early 2026, followed by the anticipated opening of a new four-story complex with 80 homes. The new homes will also provide ready access to healthcare through the VA and support services through U.S.VETS, including mental health programs, peer support, employment assistance, transportation and case management.
