Melissa in the Morning: Permanent Housing for Local Veterans

In an effort to help homeless veterans and their families find permanent housing, The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) awarded $14 million in HUD-Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing vouchers to 66 Public Housing Agencies across the country. In Connecticut, three agencies were awarded $500,213 for a total of 44 vouchers. We had the distinct honor of talking about the program to Richard Minnocchio, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of The US Department of Housing and Urban Development Public and Indian Housing.
