Our Services

Supportive Services for Veteran Families

The SSVF program assists Veterans and their families in quickly exiting homelessness, transitioning to permanent housing, and achieving housing stability. It provides financial assistance, case management, and wraparound supportive services.

Transitional Housing

The Transitional Housing Program (THP) for homeless male and female Veterans provides wraparound supportive services to assist in reintegrating into the community and securing permanent housing. Boudicca House welcomes female Veterans, and our renovated and expanded transitional & residential facility, Vets Place Central (VPC), provides 81 individual units for male Veterans.

Permanent Supportive Housing

The PSH program provides housing to assist chronically homeless or disabled U.S. Veterans and their families. It provides essential support to help participants become self-sufficient, including case management, basic needs assistance, substance abuse counseling, and transportation.

Homeless Veterans' Reintegration Program

HVRP provides a full array of employment services to Veterans re-entering the workforce. These services include career counseling, job readiness workshops, resume writing, job placement, and on-site employment recruiting.

SSG Fox Suicide Prevention Grant Program

SSG Fox SPGP is dedicated to reducing the incidence of suicide among Veterans. The program focuses on enhancing the well-being and mental health of Veterans while fostering social support and connecting them to VA and community-based resources.

Organic Therapy Program

We are bringing back OTP (Organic Therapy Program) to provide Veterans with a calm, restorative gardening space that fosters optimism and emotional relief. For those managing chronic challenges and painful past experiences, time in the garden offers a grounding, hands-on environment that consistently shifts focus, lifts mood, and creates meaningful, positive moments through connection with nature.
