This month, we are joined by Eileen Devine, National Director for Health Care for Homeless Veterans with the VHA Homeless Programs Office to learn about outreach and how VA seeks out Veterans experiencing homelessness to help them get connected to housing and health care. Ms. Devine talks about how communities work together to coordinate housing services, how VA outreach staff develop trusting relationships with Veterans experiencing homelessness and shares some concrete tips on what to do if you meet a Veteran who needs help.
Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness are strongly encouraged to contact the National Call Center for Homeless Veterans at (877) 4AID-VET (877-424-3838) for assistance.
