The Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) is seeking a contractor who can provide emergency, residential housing and case management services to homeless Veterans as part of the Community Based Health Care for Homeless Veterans (HCHV) Safe Haven program.

The contractor works in close collaboration with VA to provide Veterans community-based, residential environments with sufficient therapeutic services to meet the needs of those Veterans. Through the HCHV program, VA provides case management services to Veterans and facilitates their access to a broad range of medical, mental health, and rehabilitative services.
