On Thursday, April 26 CSH presented a webinar that covered the VA’s recent Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) to implement a Transitioning in Place (TIP) model for homeless veterans through the Grant and Per Diem program.
Topics discussed included:
- Can a Transition in Place model serve homeless people with high service needs?
- How do providers decide who will be best served in this model? What tools exist to help make these decisions?
- What considerations regarding housing stock and single vs. scattered-site models are most important? What other community resources are needed to successfully implement TIP?
- What are the most important aspects of the VA’s NOFA that applicants need to consider?
