Low demandthis program is one of the models within the overarching Veterans in progress transitional housing program. The low demand program assists homeless Veterans, primarily chronically homeless Veterans, who suffer from mental-health or substance-use problems, or who struggle with maintaining sobriety; and Veterans with multiple treatment failures that may have never received treatment services or may have been unsuccessful in traditional housing programs. These Veterans may have not yet fully committed to sobriety and treatment. Low-demand housing is a program design using a low-demand/harm-reduction model to better accommodate chronically homeless Veterans, and Veterans who were unsuccessful in traditional treatment settings. Programming does not require sobriety or compliance with mental health treatment as a condition of admission or continued stay. Overall, demands are kept to a minimum; however, services are available as needed. The goal is to establish permanent housing in the community, while providing for the safety of staff and residents.

This program is operated in Washington, d.c., houston, phoenix, prescott, las vegas, long beach, inglewood, and barber's point.bridge housingthis program is one of the models within the overarching Veterans in progress transitional housing program. The bridge housing program assists homeless Veterans that have been offered and accepted a permanent housing intervention but are not able to immediately enter the permanent housing. Bridge housing is intended to be a short-term stay in transitional housing for Veterans with pre-identified permanent housing destinations. Often Veterans are pending or controlled in another program that assists with bridging Veterans to permanent housing such as supportive services for Veterans families (ssvf), department of housing and urban development-va supportive housing (hud--v ash), and housing coalition/continuum of care (coc).

This leaves the resident in place at the residence and not forced to find other housing in 24 months or less. The goal is to convert existing suitable apartment style housing where homeless veteran participants receive time limited supportive services optimally for a period of 6-12 months, but not to exceed 24 months into a permanent housing outcome for the veteran. Upon transition of housing/program completion, the veteran must be able to "transition in place" by assuming the lease or other long-term agreement which enables the unit in which he or she resides to be considered the veteran'Veterans's permanent housing.
