Info

This month, we are joined by Dr. Carma Heitzmann, National Director for Homeless Veteran Community Employment Services with the VHA Homeless Program Office to learn more about how VA helps homeless and formerly homeless Veterans get jobs. Dr. Heitzmann talks about the many employment services that VA provides, the types of jobs that VA helps Veterans obtain, and how employment can help maximize Veterans’ income (even when they’re disabled).
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.

Jobs are important for both ententies"Persons & the Nation", BUT not all Veterans Need Jobs, What has become more"PRESSING" IS FINDING APPROPRIATE"HOUSING" PERIOD !!!! Most persons can find assistance for various issues they may incounter, but finding a Place To Live that they can afford is a current & maximun issue !!!! Homelessness Is Extremely Relevent !!!!
