Improving Housing Outcomes for Homeless Veterans (CDA 15-074)

Many homeless Veterans with serious mental illness (SMI) enroll in the VA's Supported Housing
(VASH) program but struggle to obtain and sustain housing. Social skills are an important-but
underappreciated-determinant of housing outcomes for homeless adults. The investigators
hypothesize that homeless Veterans with SMI who participate in a social skills training
program, tailored for housing-related social skills, will obtain housing quicker, retain
housing longer, and show improved mental health outcomes compared to Veterans with similar
needs not participating in such a program.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Identified by VA Greater Los Angeles Domiciliary or VASH program staff as a
participant in Housing Skills Training or meeting criteria to participate in Housing
Skills Training as determined by standard practices:

- Must have a history of homelessness

- Must be a Veteran over the age of 18 years

- Must have a serious mental illness (mood disorder, anxiety disorder, psychotic
disorder)

Exclusion Criteria:

- Not identified by GLA Domiciliary or VASH program staff as a participant in a Housing
Skills Training or meeting criteria to participate Housing Skills Training as
determined by standard practices.
