Highland Park, MI – Residents of a veterans’ apartment building in Highland Park are sounding the alarm over what they describe as unsafe and unsanitary living conditions. The facility, operated by Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries, is home to many veterans who have bravely served their country, but now find themselves living in fear of their well-being.
Concerned residents have reported issues including mold, broken heating systems, and pests infiltrating the premises. These alarming conditions were highlighted during a recent meeting, where several residents voiced their frustrations and shared their personal experiences. “We fought for our country, and this is what we come back to?” one veteran lamented, expressing disappointment in the lack of maintenance and support.
The veterans are particularly unsettled by the apparent neglect from the facility’s management. They have raised concerns about the lack of timely repairs and insufficient responses to maintenance requests. “Every time we ask for help, it seems to go unheard,” another resident stated. “We deserve better, and we need to stand together to be heard.”
As the veterans continue to advocate for change, community organizers are stepping in to assist, seeking to address the systemic issues within the facility. “Our veterans should not have to live in conditions like this. We are mobilizing resources to ensure these veterans get the safe environment they deserve,” said a local advocate.
The situation has garnered attention from local media, with calls for an investigation into the facility’s practices. Residents hope that with increased awareness, changes will follow, ensuring that their home is truly a safe haven for those who have served.
