McDonald Kearney stepped out of a van and into the parking lot of Trust House, holding a backpack full of his belongings. About a month ago, Kearney was living in a mold-infested condominium in North Carolina, dealing with an alcohol addiction and people in his life who had him pointed in the wrong direction. Even so, the Army veteran, 71, said it wasn’t easy to accept that he needed a fresh start. “I’m accustomed to being self-sufficient,” he said, but “the area that I was in was not conducive to my recovery, maintaining sanity.” Operated by ARCH Services, a Roanoke nonprofit dedicated to addressing addiction and homelessness, Trust House reserves about half of its beds for veterans. However, until last week, the shelter and recovery center on Elm Avenue had been repurposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
