AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would change federal veterans law so that several Department of Veterans Affairs programs for homeless veterans no longer have end dates. It removes expiration provisions for treatment programs for seriously mentally ill and homeless veterans, a housing assistance program for homeless veterans, and the Advisory Committee on Homeless Veterans. It would authorize $420 million each year after fiscal year 2026 for supportive services grants to very low-income veteran families in permanent housing. It would also fund a grant program for homeless veterans with special needs each fiscal year, instead of only through fiscal year 2024.
