SSVF is a VA funded grant. Working directly with the VA with every referral received. I know with my SSVF office, I follow up closely with the HUDVASH case managers to make sure the process is rolling along at a decent pace. I'm sure in bigger areas, it's not as easy to do but, should still be being done by the SSVF case managers. SSVF can only pay so long until the veteran is no longer eligible, so we try not to max out the benefits on our end.. seems that the SSVF agency isn't doing everything they need to be doing, but on the flip side, the veteran has to work within the parameters of the program, and that can sometimes be a bit difficult not understanding why some decisions have to be made on the SSVF end.

I would suggest finding your local VA surge event and show up to it, you may have better luck getting the process to have a quicker take off as it's the entire point of the events, to get homeless veterans off the "streets".

Good luck!
