This day-long Summit in Toledo, Ohio was an invitation-only event coordinated on behalf of the leadership from the Veteran Integrated Service Network 11 (VISN 11) to dialogue, plan, and align efforts to prevent and end homelessness among Veterans in Northwestern Ohio. This summit provided the participants an opportunity to highlight and celebrate successes that occurred in 2012; revisit and update the action items outlined under the six pillars of the VA’s Plan from the 2012 Summit After-Action Summary Report; and identify opportunities to collaborate and coordinate in 2013 to eradicate Veteran homelessness by 2015, in keeping with the VA’s National Strategy to End Homelessness Among Veterans (“Strategic Plan”).
The intent and purpose of the summit was to specifically identify areas of overlap and potential collaboration between VA and non-VA service systems to address Veterans who are experiencing homelessness that builds on the excellent work currently being done in Northwestern Ohio with homeless Veterans.
