The Department of Veterans Affairs is taking further action to end veteran homelessness by 2015. This week, Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric K. Shinseki announced the award of $100 million in grants to local organizations that aid low- income veterans and their families nationwide. The grants will help 151 community agencies, across 49 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. They mark a significant addition to the $60 million in support that the VA shelled out last year — a donation which successfully aided 22,000 veterans and their families.
