Veteran’s Village Of Absecon

A motel, located on Absecon Boulevard off Route 30, will soon be officially renamed Veterans Village of Absecon and provide permanent housing for a total of 26 people. “We want to make it so that it’s a community for them,” said Gladys Krasicki, of Elmer, who is a vet herself, having served in the Army for 16 years. “Once we place the veterans, they can remain there for as long as ever.”Over the past year, Krasicki and her team of volunteers have been following the Veterans Affairs’ Housing First model.
