It is estimated that 22 American veterans take their own lives each day. Many military veterans are now homeless and living on the streets. We visit a piece of land near Santa Rita Park, on Tucson’s south side known as Camp Bravo, where homeless vets are sheltered, nourished, and protected. Through donations from the community, veterans at Bravo and other homeless people are being served by Veterans on Patrol.
