1 Veterans Health Administration Fact Sheet Project CHALENG - Community Homelessness Assessment, Local Education and Networking Groups Background Project CHALENG (Community Homelessness Assessment, Local Education and Networking Groups) for Veterans was launched in 1994 to bring together providers, advocates, Veterans and other concerned citizens in order to identify the needs of homeless Veterans and to work to meet those needs through planning and cooperative action. Project CHALENG has two components: an annual CHALENG survey, in which participants rate the needs of homeless Veterans in their local communities; and CHALENG meetings, which encourage the development of partnerships between VA and community service providers. The legislation guiding this initiative is contained in Public Laws , and The annual report is no longer required to be submitted to Congress. Over the years CHALENG has helped build thousands of relationships between VA and community agencies so they can better serve homeless Veterans locally. Data from CHALENG on Veterans unmet needs has assisted VA in the development of major new Veterans services including the Homeless Veteran Dental Program (HVDP), expansion of the Department of Housing and Urban Development-VA Supportive Housing (HUD-VASH) Program, the Veterans Justice Programs and Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) Program. Community organizations also use the CHALENG survey data in their grant applications for VA, other Federal, local government, and community foundation dollars, which maximizes community participation in serving homeless Veterans. Consistent with 2013 data and with the previous 10 years of CHALENG data, met needs primarily reflect services that VHA can provide directly, and unmet needs are primarily services that require community partnership to meet. This consistency underscores the importance of collaboration between federal, state, local, and community partners to meet the needs of homeless Veterans to successfully end homelessness. For male Veterans, the top 10 unmet needs were the same in fiscal years (FY) 2013 and This was also true for female Veterans. Similarly, the top ten met needs were the same for male Veterans in 2013 and This was also true for female Veterans. For more information, see or contact Jessica Blue-Howells, MSW, Program Manager, CHALENG [email protected].
