Supportive Services for Veteran Families
- What is the SSFV Program?
The Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) program started in North Dakota in 2012. This program provides families with outreach, case management, and assistance in obtaining VA and other benefits. Veteran families may qualify for assistance with time-limited payments to third parties for rent, utilities, moving expenses, and licensed child care. SSVF is funded by the Veterans Administration and works through private non-profit organizations and consumer cooperatives.
