Midwest Shelter for Homeless Veterans, Inc.

Midwest Shelter for Homeless Veterans (MSHV) is a Wheaton nonprofit that provides housing, supportive services, and community outreach for homeless and at-risk veterans and their families. Founded by veterans Bob Adams and Dirk Enger, the organization opened its shelter in 2007 with a vision of ending veteran homelessness and helping people build self-sufficient lives.

MSHV’s programs include transitional and permanent supportive housing, homelessness prevention and rapid re-housing, case management, employment assistance, benefits navigation, and referrals to veteran and community resources. Its Freedom Commissary provides essential household items to veterans and their families, while its clinical services focus on personalized, community-based support.
