Permanent affordable housing for Veterans and their families — a 71-home community on our historic Fort Ord campus.
Lightfighter Village is a 71-unit permanent affordable housing community that provides Veterans and their families with a stable place to call home. Developed through a partnership between Veterans Transition Center of California and EAH Housing, the community reflects our commitment to creating long-term housing solutions that help Veterans build stable, independent futures.
Relive the Wall-Raising Celebration
More than housing, Lightfighter Village offers residents access to supportive services, workforce development resources, wellness programs, and community connections through the Veterans Transition Center campus. Thoughtfully designed amenities help create an environment where Veterans and their families can thrive:
