Ending Veteran Homelessness

No Veteran Should Be Without a Place to Call Home

VA is committed to ending homelessness among Veterans. Our focus is threefold:

  • Conducting coordinated outreach to proactively seek out Veterans in need of assistance.
  • Connecting homeless and at-risk Veterans with housing solutions, health care, community employment services and other required supports.
  • Collaborating with federal, state and local agencies; employers; housing providers, faith-based and community nonprofits; and others to expand employment and affordable housing options for Veterans exiting homelessness.

Take Action

  • Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of becoming homeless can call or visit their local VA Medical Center, where homeless coordinators are ready to help.
  • Veterans and their families may also call 1-877-4AID-VET (1-877-424-3838) to access VA services.
  • Explore va.gov/homeless to learn about VA programs for Veterans who are homeless and share that information with others.
