New Study Highlights SSVF Successes
TAC's work as technical assistance provider, in partnership with Abt Associates, on the Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) program is in evidence in a New Report on the SSVF Program's Effectiveness in the program's first year. SSVF is the VA's innovative homelessness prevention and rapid re-housing program currently undergoing a significant, national expansion with multiple new grantees. The report on the SSVF program's impacts in the first year are noteworthy. These include evidence that SSVF effectively:
- prevents and ends homelessness
- operates with efficiency
- targets Veterans with high need
- serves younger Veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan
- serves female veterans in high proportion
- connects Veterans to income maximization opportunity
