This $1.6 million project grant from the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Under Secretary for Health will support the Featherfist organization in providing supportive services to very low-income Veteran families through the VA Supportive Services for Veteran Families Program (SSVF Program; CFDA 64.033).

Featherfist will use the funding to coordinate and deliver a range of supportive services including outreach, case management, assistance obtaining VA and other public benefits, and temporary financial assistance paid directly to third parties for needs such as childcare, housing, transportation, utilities, and moving costs. These services are intended to benefit Veteran families residing in or seeking permanent housing. The SSVF Program aims to assist very low-income Veteran households by providing grantees that link Veterans and their families to VA medical care and benefit programs, as well as other public and private services including affordable, stable housing.
