Fisher Houses are temporary lodging facilities designed for the use of families of hospitalized active duty service members and veterans. They are constructed on military installations and VHA facility grounds by the Fisher House Foundation and then donated to DoD or the VA. Fisher Houses are a “home away from home” that provide a warm, compassionate environment where families find support and encouragement from each other.
