Free Lodging for Veterans' Families in St. Louis

The VA Fisher House at Jefferson Barracks provides free lodging for veterans' families and caregivers while their loved one receives VA medical care in St. Louis. Our home at the Jefferson Barracks VA campus means families never have to choose between being at a loved one's bedside and worrying about where to sleep.
