LA Mayor and VA Secretary launch program to cut veteran homelessness through better housing voucher access.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough have launched an initiative to reduce veteran homelessness by streamlining housing voucher processes and increasing landlord engagement. The program aims to expedite veterans' eligibility for housing vouchers and connect them with willing landlords, supported by additional staff and resources. The initiative follows a 23% reduction in veteran homelessness last year and could serve as a model for national efforts to address veteran housing needs.
