A veteran and her family of eight, including two parents and six minor children, were experiencing homelessness, out of funds, and waiting for assistance in a parking lot.

VSF funds were used to first transport the family into the jurisdiction of an SSVF program, and then to provide temporary hotel-based shelter until that program could complete its intake and begin taking over services.

This took place yesterday evening, and the SSVF program had already stepped in and begun working with the family by the next morning.
