ECHO Nardmoor: A New Beacon of Hope for Veterans Experiencing Homelessness

On Tuesday, August 27, the Eastern Carolina Housing Organization (ECHO) will officially open the doors to its newest facility, Nardmoor, located at 601 65th Ave., Myrtle Beach. This transitional bridge housing facility is specifically designed to support veterans experiencing homelessness, offering them a stable environment as they work towards securing permanent housing.

ECHO Nardmoor is more than just a shelter; it’s a community. The facility provides housing for up to 40 male veterans, each of whom will have access to a range of services aimed at helping them regain independence and stability. Residents will benefit from 24-hour onsite support and management, ensuring that help is always available when needed.

One of the key features of ECHO Nardmoor is its comprehensive housing case management services. These services are designed to address the specific barriers veterans may face in securing permanent housing. This includes assistance in obtaining public and VA benefits, such as disability, as well as connecting veterans with essential community resources. These resources encompass employment, education, and healthcare, ensuring that residents have access to the support they need to rebuild their lives.

The opening of Nardmoor marks a significant step forward in ECHO’s ongoing mission to prevent and end homelessness in Eastern Carolina. The organization’s commitment to providing tailored support to veterans reflects a deep understanding of the unique challenges they face. Through initiatives like Nardmoor, ECHO continues to offer hope and tangible solutions to those who have served our country.
