The Department of Veterans Affairs is teaming up with the Pentagon Federal Credit Union Foundation (PenFed Foundation) to strengthen efforts to prevent veteran homelessness. This new partnership will expand the PenFed Foundation's existing Military Heroes Fund Emergency Assistance Program to include all veterans. As a part of the partnership, Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Homeless Program staff will connect veterans who are facing overdue or arrearage payments to the PenFed Foundation for emergency financial assistance. For more information about VA's homeless initiatives, visit VA's Ending Veteran Homelessness webpage.
