BREAKING NEWS: Today, March 15, 2023, the Department of Veterans Affairs announced its 2023 goals for preventing and ending Veteran homelessness. To help us understand what this means for Veterans experiencing homelessness and housing instability, we are joined by Jill Albanese, Director of Clinical Operations and Senior Advisor with the VHA Homeless Programs Office. Ms. Albanese walks us through the new goals and how VA plans to homelessness assistance services for Veterans.

Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness are strongly encouraged to contact the National Call Center for Homeless Veterans at (877) 4AID-VET (877-424-3838) for assistance.
