We use Spatial Analysis and Statistics generated by Geographic Information Systems in order for us to intelligently place Veterans in housing that will give them the greatest community support possible. This identifies whats most important to our men and women who transition from service, which is critical to their success. Veterans Housing & Employment Assistance Program clients get matched up to neighborhoods where they will have the greatest opportunity to thrive based on their specific needs for housing. Geographic Information Systems enable visualization, management, and analyzing capabilities of varying geographic information to allow greater understanding of the locational context and its relationships to the specified data. We provide advanced community analysis to ensure our clients needs are met through the application of Geographic Information Systems. This spatial analysis procedure is based on geographic features, demographics, related statistics, and most importantly a needs assessment survey that weights criteria. Our model warehouses, verifies, and displays spatial and distinct attribute data.

Will Veterans Housing & Employment Assistance Program know my job skills? YES!
To help the Veteran transition to real life, practical, helpful, life-changing opportunities, we must achieve transparency and accountability for these programs, we need to know in the most exact way and the number of Veterans aided by the programs and the type of job skill sets that they have. To be able to do this, it is necessary for an outside agency to perform a survey to all the Veterans that take part in these programs. This agency will have to go to every Government Paid and Subsidized Shelter and Transitional Facility, as well as to every Housing Unit provided by the HUD-VASH Program. Also, every single case-worker must be a helpful element of this task. Obviously this survey will reach every Private Non-Profit Organization and Consumer Cooperative who is providing supportive services to very low-income Veteran families living in or transitioning to permanent housing via the Supportive Services for Veteran Families Program. The gathering of all this data will most certainly take approximately a period of six months. It will produce the needed data to know the job skills of every single Veteran aided by these programs.

Veterans Housing & Employment Assistance Program

Can Veterans Housing & Employment Assistance Program provide a job for me within my own community? YES!
Community Investment Veterans Housing & Employment Assistance Program (VHEAP) joins Veteran minded and Veteran centered Veteran owned businesses, Veteran contractors and Veteran centered community partners, all of them can be called or be referred to as Captains of the Industry, in order to hire fellow Veterans through a contractual agreement, thus providing them with formal employment. This takes us to the answer to truly and objectively eliminate the problem of homelessness in our society. It also takes us to the elimination of the causes of homelessness or the conditions that provoked it, such as mental disorder, substance use disorder, among others. The answer is called: WORK. Having a job is morally necessary for it provides the individual with a mental or physical activity which brings self-worth and a sense of satisfaction to the persons life.

Does Veterans Housing & Employment Assistance Program believe I can get healthy again? YES!
Community Involvement Most probably, many Veterans hired by the Captains of the Industry may be suffering from various types of mental illness. In order to be able to obtain the job opportunity, the Veteran suffering from a mental disorder must agree to be helped by a peer support specialist. A peer support specialist is a person with a mental health and/or co-occurring condition, who has been trained and certified to help others with these conditions, who is actively engaged in his/her own recovery, and who volunteers or is hired to provide peer support services to others engaged in mental health treatment. They share their knowledge and experience with other Veterans, so that they, too, may learn to lead the lives they deserve, identifying and achieving specific life and recovery goals.

Does Veterans Housing & Employment Assistance Program believe this effort is worthwhile? YES!
Community Re-Adjustment Usually State or Federal contracts are most favorable for Veteran owned businesses who actually hire Veterans. These Veterans must be dedicated to their peer support specialists recovery based programs. We are on the road to victory when a person is trained to perform a certain work in an environment that enables the individual to give its best, when the individual is engaged in his/her own recovery of its mental health issues via peer support specialists, and when these individuals are trained and employed by their own peers within their own ethnic community. When ethnic communities in Chicago work within their respective ethnic communities helping their own Veterans by employing them, and when they help their Veterans with peer support specialists so they progress in their own recovery from mental disorder or substance use disorder, that is when the problem of homelessness will stop being a cruel reality. This is real community outreach, real advocacy and real education.
