I'm the Veteran Rapid Re-housing Program (VRRP) Case Manager from HomeFirst and my client is needing financial assistance for the deposit/first month rent at the Curtner Studios. The deposit is $1,100.00 and monthly rent is $693.00. Would this veteran qualify for assistance with a monthly income of $974.00 from SSI and SSDI? Veteran will no longer be obtaining VRRP assistance after March 2021 as he has been in the program for 2 years+. I want to ensure veteran has secure housing before veteran is discharged from the program. Veteran has already been approved for the Curtner Studios and has a move-in date on September 29, 2022. Please let me know if assistance can be provided, thank you.

There is a program known as Supportive Services for Veteran Families, and it helps with rehousing. Your HomeFirst case manager should be able to help you apply. Now whether it will give the entire $100 deposit or not, we have no idea. But try them to apply, and learn more on SSVF housing assistance for veterans.

My name is Carla. I was on the veteran focused rapid rehousing list least year. I made some calls and I got tried around. Guess It was my turn for a trip thru " the cracks". Last year before Christmas I was put in a hotel in Dunn North Carolina which was great until they decided that last minute to throw everyone out on the street. And that's fine but the rehousing thing never happened. Well it's so hot outside. I have a severe rash on my left leg still had the same thing last year only this year it's very very infected.
I'm alone, I'm scared, I'm tired and I was told that they're doing it again that they're giving out hotel vouchers for those veterans that are homeless and I need some help. Someone please help me. I don't know what to do anymore as a veteran to get rehoused. My mother just died after Thanksgiving. My family has seen me and talk to me and they don't care. They put me right back out here although they can afford to buy me 10 houses and I'm done. I'm just about done with the veteran programs, but someone help me because I'm at a loss as to help myself. I need a warm place to live.
