CSH Executive Director Testifies to Congress Regarding Housing Needs for Veterans
Last year, the Corporation for Supportive Housing, in cooperation with the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans (NCHV) and Volunteers of America, convened a group of government officials, non-profit providers of services to veterans, and policy advocates to participate in a Leadership Dialogue about the federal policy landscape for homeless veterans. The day and a half event helped attendees develop a common understanding of the role of permanent supportive housing in addressing veterans’ homelessness, and the policy changes that would create more housing options for homeless veterans. Many of the observations and recommendations in my testimony today are from lessons learned during this Leadership Dialogue.
