The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration awarded a $995,168 Project Grant under the Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) Program (CFDA 64.033) to The Kitchen Inc., a non-profit organization in Springfield, Missouri. The grant funds will be used to provide comprehensive supportive services to very low-income veteran families who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, or transitioning to permanent housing. Key services include outreach, case management, assistance obtaining VA and public benefits, and temporary financial assistance for housing-related expenses such as rent, utilities, security deposits, and moving costs. The Kitchen Inc. will also have the option to offer legal assistance and financial management services. This SSVF grant award aims to help address homelessness and promote housing stability and self-sufficiency among vulnerable veteran populations in the Ozarks region.
