With the support of Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies, a variety of organizations helped homeless veterans pack up to leave their encampment and move onto the West Los Angeles Veterans Affairs campus located behind a fence of their San Vicente Boulevard campus Monday morning.
The encampment adjacent to the historic VA campus has become a focal point for homelessness in the city, with mayoral candidates making visits over the last year. Veteran Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough, who visited the encampment in October, said that the campus would house the roughly 40 veterans from the Veterans Row encampment by November.
