After serving his country honorably in both the Army and the Navy, Keith finds himself struggling just to support himself, though it doesn’t seem to be for lack of trying. Out of work since June of 2009, Keith is a homeless veteran–one of thousands of veterans who are homeless or jobless in New York State. Keith doesn’t have a college degree, and so is relying primarily on his work and military experience. He has applied for many jobs, but has had little success. Still, he retains a positive outlook as he attends job fairs in the region.
