The National Coalition for Homeless Veterans (NCHV) TA Center will hold four webinars to provide information on the HVRP Solicitation for Grant Applications (SGA). These training webinars are intended as a supplemental resource for potential applicants and interested partners; all potential applicants are strongly encouraged to review the HVRP SGA and associated documents.
 
On April 13, 2015, the U.S. Department of Labor Veterans' Employment and Training Service (DOL-VETS) announced the availability of up to $4 million to fund approximately 19 Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program (HVRP) grants. Approximately 2,000 veterans will receive job training and related services to help them succeed in civilian careers. HVRP is the only federal program that focuses exclusively on the employment of veterans who are homeless. Funds will be awarded on a competitive basis to state and local workforce investment boards, local public agencies, tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations, including faith-based and community organizations. HVRP applications are due May 12, 2015.
 
Participants in this training are seeking clarification on changes and program requirements and will include:
• Organizations with previous HVRP experience seeking updates on the program
• Current grantees that are re-applying as first year programs (after third year funding)
• Current grantees that will be re-applying as first year programs in the next 2 years
• HVRP community partners interested in learning about changes that can impact services
• American Job Center staff members interested in learning about possible service impacts
