Veterans Multi-Service Center Inc.

Veterans Multi-Service Center Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, operates as a federal grant recipient delivering housing stability, employment training, and suicide prevention services to low-income and homeless veterans across Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey. The organization holds 89 federal grants awarded entirely as a prime recipient (100% of awards), with no contract prime or subcontract footprint; its federal activity concentrates on grants from the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the Department of Labor.

The vendor's grant portfolio centers on four core federal programs. The Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) Program (CFDA 64.033) under VA's Veterans Health Administration anchors the largest dollar commitment, with multiple awards funding outreach, case management, assistance obtaining VA and public benefits, and temporary financial assistance for rental support, utilities, security deposits, moving costs, and childcare directed at very low-income veteran families. A $16.9 million SSVF award effective September 30, 2025 through September 30, 2026 exemplifies the scale. The Staff Sergeant Parker Gordon Fox Suicide Prevention Grant Program (CFDA 64.055) supports community-based suicide prevention outreach, mental health screening, and linkage to VA resources; Veterans Multi-Service Center Inc. received $740,211 for fiscal year 2026 (the fourth year of funding authorization) and $740,211 for fiscal year 2025. The Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) under HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development funds permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, and supportive services only; recent CoC awards include a $386,520 grant effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026. The Homeless Veterans' Reintegration Program (CFDA 17.805) under Department of Labor's Veterans Employment and Training Service funds employment and training for homeless and at-risk veterans; a $278,632 award effective July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2028 targets twelve Pennsylvania counties with job training, employment placement, housing assistance, and wraparound services projected to enroll 70 homeless veterans and place 61% into sustainable employment.

Customer concentration among the top five funding agencies accounts for 94% of awards. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Under Secretary for Health leads with 30 awards, the Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development holds 21 awards, VA Veterans Health Administration (distinct from the Under Secretary entity) carries 18 awards, the Department of Labor Veterans Employment and Training Service accounts for 13 awards, and VA Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 holds 2 awards valued at $220 thousand combined potential value. Recent annual activity shows seven awards in 2022, eight in 2023, four in 2024, five in 2025, and one in 2026, indicating flat to declining award volume in the past two years. Four awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating near-term recompete exposure. The organization's combined potential value across all 89 grants is $741 thousand, though actual dollars obligated total $163.8 million, reflecting gap between estimated award values and invoiced federal spending across a long grant history dating to 2003.
