Abstract: Consistent with the Financial Assistance for Supportive Services Act (38 U.S.C. 2044), the purpose of the Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) Program is to provide supportive services grants to private non-profit organizations and consumer cooperatives who will coordinate or provide supportive services to very low-income veteran families who are residing in permanent housing, are homeless and scheduled to become residents of permanent housing within a specified time period, or after exiting permanent housing, are seeking other housing that is responsive to such very low-income veteran family’s needs and preferences. The SSVF Program is within the continuum of the Department of Veterans Affairs’ (VA) homeless services programs.
