From Empty Rooms to New Beginnings: The Mission of Harvison House
When a veteran moves off the streets and into transitional housing, the battle isn't over; it's just quieter. The silence of an empty room can be deafening. No bed, no table, no place to sit, no sign of comfort. That's where Harvison House steps in. In this episode of Vegas Veteran Voices, we talk with the founder of Harvison House, a Las Vegas nonprofit that turns cold, empty spaces into true homes for veterans transitioning out of homelessness. Through donated furniture, community partnerships, and a whole lot of heart, they help veterans rebuild their lives with dignity and stability. This conversation goes beyond couches and coffee tables. It's about mental health, second chances, and why having a place to sit down at the end of the day can mean the difference between surviving and healing. If you've ever wondered what real impact looks like... this is it. In this episode: • How Harvison House started (and the pain that fueled its purpose) • The unspoken trauma of housing insecurity • Why the smallest comforts can be the biggest victories for veterans • How you can help Watch, share, and subscribe.

What happens when a Navy and Army veteran hits rock bottom, then builds something incredible from the ground up, literally in his own backyard? Meet Anthony Rivera, the founder of Pizza Neo, a veteran-owned pizzeria in Las Vegas that went viral for all the right reasons. Brought to by www.Realtyvet.com In this episode, we dive deep into Anthony's journey: from serving in two military branches to battling addiction, rebuilding his life through homeownership with a VA loan, and launching Pizza Neo with nothing but a dough recipe and a dream. Featured on FOX5 Vegas and supported by a $2,000 donation from Veterans Benefits Guide (an organization that helps veterans professionally navigate the VA claims process), this is more than a story about pizza, it's about purpose, community, and second chances.
