This month, we are joined by Allison Bond, Deputy Director of the Heath Care for Homeless Veterans Program and Anthony Love, the Principal Advisor to the Executive Director for Intra/Inter-Agency Collaboration and Director of Community Engagement in the VHA Homeless Programs Office, to learn about the experience of unsheltered homelessness among Veterans. Our guests talk about what unsheltered homelessness is, why it harms Veterans, and what VA and the federal government are doing about it.

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.
