Each of these awards funds permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services only, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) operations. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Under Secretary for Health is the second-largest customer with 14 prime awards under the VA Supportive Services for Veteran Families Program (CFDA 64.033), which funds outreach, case management, assistance obtaining VA benefits, and temporary financial assistance (rental support, utility payments, security deposits, moving costs, emergency housing) for very low-income veteran families.
