HMMM-V
The HMMM-V is the Homeless Mobile Medical and Mental Health for Veterans. The HMMM-V vehicle is equipped and staffed to be able to bring much-needed primary health and mental health care and social services to this underserved population of Veterans, right into their own environments. Another innovative feature of this program is that it will deliver patient-centered care to the unique and challenging environments of homeless settings. There is no other mobile Veteran outreach program in the nation that does all of this.
This project is developing online vocational materials to be used by Veterans who are vulnerable to employment difficulties (e.g. rural Veterans, homeless Veterans, previously incarcerated Veterans). It is funded by VA's Rehabilitation Research and Development service and the Meadows Foundation.
