NEW: Office Hours Call Series: 2nd and 4th Fridays of the Month- Permanent Housing Placement National Challenge to House 38,000 Veterans

On February 25, 2022, Secretary of Veterans Affairs Denis McDonough outlined new goals towards ending homelessness, which included a national goal of placing at least 38,000 Veterans experiencing homelessness into permanent housing during calendar year (CY) 2022. To support the implementation of plans and actions to achieve this goal, the VHA Homeless Programs Office invites you to our bi-weekly Office Hours Call Series. This call series is intended to provide broad technical assistance and support that integrates all VA and community-partner programs and services towards accomplishing the goal, including SSVF Grantees.  The call capacity has been increased to accommodate up to 3,000 attendees.

 

These calls will be held on the 2^nd and 4^th Fridays of the Month at 3pm EST/12pm PT. As this goal will be a major focus of homeless program operations for the remainder of CY 2022, please forward this invitation as appropriate.
