Goodwill Awarded Grant to Help Homeless Veterans

Coconut Telegraph

In response to the growing needs of the homeless veteran community, Goodwill’s Veterans Services Program expanded to include three facets: the Veterans and Their Families Program (VFP), the Special Emergency Resources for Veterans (SERV) Fund and the Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program (HVRP). The focus of the latter program is solely homeless veterans and is funded directly through grants from the US Department of Labor. Goodwill received the grant from the Department of Labor to fund the HVRP last year, and has been awarded a second year grant. The focus of this grant is to find stable employment for more than 100 homeless veterans.
