"VA Surpasses Goal for Housing Homeless Vets in 2022" [View all]

The Department of Veterans Affairs found housing for 40,401 homeless veterans last year, surpassing its goal of 38,000 for 2022.

The department has not yet set a new benchmark for how many veterans it will find homes for in 2023, officials told reporters in a briefing Wednesday. But it is taking a victory lap on exceeding its 2022 goal and expressing confidence that it is making progress in the fight against veteran homelessness.
