Dignity Memorial Homeless Veterans Burial Program

Every night, nearly 200,000 homeless veterans sleep on the streets. “A disgrace,” says former Secretary of Veteran Affairs, Jesse Brown, “that we have men and women who served in American uniform who are out on the streets with no place to go and few prospects for a better life.”

Dignity Memorial funeral, cremation and cemetery providers are honored to administer the Homeless Veterans Burial Program. In partnership with numerous veterans organizations, Dignity Memorial providers help to ensure that eligible veterans receive the honors in death that their service in life merited.

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs provides eligible veterans with opening and closing of the gravesite, a grave liner, a headstone or marker, a graveside ceremony and burial in a National Cemetery. Participating Dignity Memorial funeral directors provide transportation, preparation, clothing and casket.

This program is available in select U.S. markets.
