Senate Bill 385 aims to enhance the veterans housing and recovery program by allocating additional funds to the Department of Veterans Affairs. Specifically, the bill proposes an increase of $900,000 for the fiscal year 2025-26 and $1,050,000 for the fiscal year 2026-27. These funds are intended to cover supplies and services costs for the program's three locations in Chippewa Falls, Green Bay, and Union Grove, as well as to address the need for leasing a new facility for the Chippewa Falls program due to deficiencies in the current location.

The bill includes specific fiscal changes, increasing the appropriation under section 20.485 (2) (rm) of the state statutes to reflect the new funding amounts for the specified fiscal years. This legislative effort is supported by a broad coalition of senators and representatives, indicating a strong commitment to improving resources for veterans in Wisconsin.
