Individuals suffering homelessness are usually unemployed, unable to work, or have such a low income that they cannot access safe affordable housing. Some individuals who are homeless have disabling mental health, substance abuse, or physical conditions that lead to, or compound, their homeless situation. Families undergoing homelessness are seen more frequently than in the past when single individuals were the primary. In an effort to support the VA s Zero Tolerance on homelessness among Veterans, DC VAMC is seeking onsite masters level Case Manager to coordinate treatment services with VA and or community-based providers/ programs to meet the goal and needs of the Veteran and his or her family in HUD VASH Community Based Housing.
