San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee says efforts to reduce the number of chronically homeless veterans in the city seem to be working.

Wednesday, Lee announced that there has been a 30 percent reduction in veteran homelessness in San Francisco since 2011. That includes 110 chronically homeless vets who were housed in the last 100 days alone.

Lee says San Francisco is on track to meet a federal goal of ending homelessness among veterans by the end of 2015.
