Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program
HVRP provides services to assist veterans who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. Our program helps them reintegrate into their communities and find meaningful employment. We also provide veterans with the tools they need to gain new skill sets, such as financial literacy, computer training, job search training, and interview guidance. Veterans learn skills to retain employment and become financially independent. The U.S. Department of Labor funds this program.
