The SSVF Program Office
will be highlighting VA special programs/populations during the month of
July. This webinar is intended to improve grantee knowledge about
specialized resources available to Veterans we serve. Additionally, we
would like to assist grantees in continuing to build relationships with these
local resources in an effort to support effective engagement with special
populations and improve equitable service delivery. Each presentation
will provide information about the special programs and how Veterans may access
these programs and provide an avenue for grantees to continue to build
relationships with their VA partners.
Grantees

Healthcare Navigators, and other relevant staff.
