This Project Grant award, provided by the U.S. Department of Labor's Veterans Employment and Training Service (VETS) under the Homeless Veterans' Reintegration Program (CFDA 17.805), aims to assist veterans experiencing homelessness with finding employment. The $336,000 grant awarded to Vocational Rehabilitation Specialists Inc. (VRSI), a service-disabled veteran-owned small business, will fund a range of employment services including intake and assessment, community engagement, employment skills training, resume development, job placement assistance, and post-employment follow-up. VRSI plans to enroll 84 eligible homeless and at-risk veterans over the grant period from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028, with the goal of achieving placement rates between 57.8-80.3% and helping veterans obtain jobs with average hourly wages around $14-$16. VRSI has established partnerships with various local, state, and federal organizations, including VA, HUD-VASH, veterans service organizations, and faith-based groups, to support its veteran employment efforts.
