Title: Supportive Services for Veteran Families Program  
Abstract: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend its regulations concerning the Supportive Services for Veteran Families program (SSVF). The proposed changes would clarify, consistent with existing regulations, that grantees must focus on providing permanent housing to eligible veteran families who, without SSVF assistance, would likely become homeless. The proposed clarifications are intended to emphasize the intended goals of SSVF. The proposed rule would expand grantee's to provide certain services to all very low-income veteran families, and specifically to those veterans families with significant lower economic resources, which we would identify as extremely low-income veterans. The purpose of this expanded authority is to address identified needs based on the administration of SSVF since its inception, and to provide incentive grantees to assist these particularly vulnerable veteran families.
