Homeless Veterans’ Reintegration Program (HVRP), Incarcerated Veterans’ Transition Program (IVTP), and the Homeless Women Veterans' and Homeless Veterans' with Children Reintegration Grant Program (HWVHVWC) (referred to collectively as HVRP)
Veterans Employment and Training Service
Description
HVRP is an employment-focused, competitive federal grant program intended to enable veterans experiencing or at risk of homelessness to reach their full employment potential and obtain high-quality career outcomes. HVRP is aligned with the priorities set forth by the President's Executive Orders to deliver comprehensive employment services to eligible veterans to assist these veterans in transitioning from homelessness to stable employment and to connect them with high-paying, skilled job opportunities that will shape the workforce of the future.
To help address the number of veterans who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless, DOL/VETS requires HVRP grant recipients to provide services tailored to each veteran's needs using a case management approach. Grant recipients must help connect veterans to supportive services available in their local communities. In addition, grant recipients must also help veterans successfully return to work by providing job training services that support their needs. This can be done by providing direct help or by creating a strong referral system that includes tools, resources, and partnerships that identify, find, prepare, and support veterans experiencing or at risk of homelessness so they can reach their full employment potential.
The HVRP website, the Prospective HVRP Applicant Resources website, and Veterans' Program Letter 02-26 Homeless Veterans' Recognition Program Requirements and Functions policy provide useful information about program requirements.
