Legal Services for Homeless Veterans and Veterans At-Risk for Homelessness Grants (LSV-H) Program
VA’s Legal Services for Homeless Veterans and Veterans At-Risk for Homelessness (LSV-H) grant program supplies funding to partners that can provide free legal services to eligible Veterans who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. This funding allows partners to assist with:
- Housing issues such as eviction defense or landlord-tenant and foreclosure cases.
- Family law such as child support, child custody, divorce, estate planning, and family reconciliation. o Income support, including obtaining public benefits.
- Criminal defense in matters symptomatic of homelessness, such as outstanding warrants, fines, driver’s license revocation, citations, or expunging or sealing a criminal record.
- Protective orders and other legal matters related to domestic or intimate partner violence.
- Other issues such as upgrade to military discharge, access to health care, or employment law.
As an LSV-H grantee, this page provides you with tools and resources to help you develop partnerships with your local VA and promote your organization’s LSV-H services to Veterans and stakeholders.
