Dear Captain Cornicelli,
We commend you and the Veteran Recovery Coalition (VRC) for your steadfast commitment to eradicating veteran homelessness, poverty, and substance dependency. For more than a decade, VRC has helped over 2,500 veterans regain stability, dignity, and long-term self-sufficiency through a results-driven, veteran-centered approach.
Your 5W case-management model delivers individualized, accountable support across housing stabilization, employment readiness, transportation access, and essential needs. By pairing short-term crisis response with a structured, long-term transition and a workforce-first strategy, VRC empowers veterans to actively participate in their recovery and achieve lasting independence.
Through strong coordination with service providers and community partners, you efficiently remove barriers to stability while ensuring continued oversight and measurable outcomes beyond the initial crisis.
Our nation has a duty to stand by those who have served, and your leadership reflects that responsibility in action. Thank you for your dedication to our veterans and their families. It is a privilege to represent you in Congress. Please do not hesitate to reach out if we can be of assistance.
Sincerely,
Nancy Mace
Member of Congress
