Eviction Prevention/Rapid Rehousing
VA Supportive Services for Veterans and their Families (SSVF) Program

Under the SSVF program, eligible veteran families receive case management and assistance in obtaining VA and other benefits, which may include health care benefits, daily living services, personal financial planning services, transportation, fiduciary and payee services, legal services, child care services, and housing counseling.

In addition, veteran families may also be assisted with time-limited payments to third parties (e.g., landlords, utility companies, moving companies, and licensed child care providers) if these payments help veteran families stay in or acquire permanent housing on a sustainable basis.
