Homeless veterans and those at risk of homelessness must apply for the HUD-VASH program through their local VA Medical Center.
To apply for a VASH Voucher:
The VA directory has an interactive map to find the closest facility. There is also a link below the map to browse facilities by state from a list.
When the nearest VA Medical Center is located, contact the facility.
During this conversation, VA Medical Center staff will determine eligibility for the HUD-VASH program.
The VA Medical Center will then coordinate with the local housing authority to provide a rental assistance voucher.
After getting a VASH voucher, the next step is to find a unit before the time limit expires.
