Axiom Care, a Phoenix-based provider of behavioral health and recovery housing since 2012, announced the opening of the John McCain Veterans Center on March 11.
The center, a 60-bed transitional housing program designed to serve veterans navigating challenges related to substance use disorders, mental health conditions, trauma and homelessness, is on the campus of Victory Place, a 200-apartment veteran-focused affordable housing community established in 2001.
At a ribbon-cutting ceremony last week were U.S. Marine Corps Veteran Jim McCain and his mother, Ambassador Cindy McCain, wife of the late U.S. Senator John McCain.
“My husband would be very proud of what this place stands for, proud of the veterans who will find hope here, and especially proud of our son’s involvement,” said Ambassador Cindy McCain.
