NCHV Policy Forum and Workshops
The NCHV Policy Forum, which will be held on the afternoon of June 6, will dispel rumors and answer questions about the impact of the Five-Year Plan on grant-funded homeless veteran assistance programs. Top officials from the Departments of Housing and Urban Development, Veterans Affairs and Labor will participate in Q-and-A sessions, directly responding to service providers’ concerns. USICH Deputy Director Anthony Love will co-facilitate the forum with NCHV President and CEO John Driscoll.
In addition to policy briefings and networking opportunities at this year’s annual conference, attendees will be able to engage in 34 critical workshops, including sessions on the following:
1. Changes in the Grant and Per Diem Program
2. The future of HUD-VASH and access to low-income housing
3. Increasing veteran employment opportunities
4. Ensuring veteran access to mainstream and homelessness prevention services
5. Expanding legal aid for homeless veterans
6. Data integration impact on local programs and funding
