The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Health Administration awarded Shelter House Community Shelter and Transition Services a Project Grant of $358,448 under the VA Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem (GPD) Program (CFDA 64.024) effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2028. This three-year Case Management Grant funds case management services designed to increase housing stability for veterans by partnering with community organizations to deliver focused housing stability interventions. The award supports comprehensive case management activities that help veterans experiencing or at risk of homelessness obtain and retain permanent housing while facilitating their transition to self-sufficiency.

As a nonprofit organization based in Iowa City, Shelter House will utilize the funding to provide essential supportive services including housing placement assistance, benefits navigation, employment support, and other case management activities tailored to meet the specific needs of vulnerable veteran populations. This award represents the VA's investment in community-based housing solutions and aligns with the broader GPD Program mission to support the largest transitional housing initiative for veterans experiencing homelessness since 1994.
