In this Jan. 30, 2014 photo, Don Gross sits in the RVCP dining facility near a section of a favorite quote by Mother Teresa in Janesville, Wis. Gross is one of about 40 veterans in a transitional housing program called Housing 4 Our Vets, located south of Janesville. In 2011, the nonprofit Rock Valley Community Programs opened the housing, which is funded by the Veterans Administration and community donations. The goal of the program is for homeless veterans to transition into their own housing. Men range in age from early 20s to 80. Many served during the Vietnam era. More veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan are entering the program, which can house a maximum of 48. (AP Photo/The Janesville Gazette, Bil Olmsted)
