The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) awarded a $1,807,402 Project Grant under the VA Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) Program (CFDA 64.033) to Start Corp, a non-profit organization in Louisiana. The grant funds will enable Start Corp to coordinate and provide supportive services to very low-income veteran families who are residing in permanent housing, homeless and transitioning to permanent housing, or recently exited permanent housing. Required services include outreach, case management, assistance obtaining VA and public benefits, and temporary financial assistance for housing-related costs like rent, utilities, security deposits, and moving expenses. Start Corp may also provide optional supportive services such as legal aid and financial counseling. This comprehensive range of services aims to rapidly re-house homeless veterans, prevent homelessness, and promote self-sufficiency in permanent housing situations. The grant period begins on August 21, 2023.
