The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking contractors to provide temporary housing for homeless veterans through the Lexington VAMC's Community-Based Contracted Emergency Residential Services (CERS) program. The primary objective is to offer transitional housing and case management services to veterans, with a focus on facilitating their transition to permanent housing within a maximum stay of 180 days. This initiative is crucial for supporting homeless veterans by providing safe living environments and access to therapeutic services, thereby addressing their unique needs related to mental health and substance abuse. Interested contractors should contact Michael McCarthy at michael.mccarthy5@va.gov or Harry R Grambo III at Harry.Gramboiii@va.gov for further details, as the contract will span a base year with four additional option years.
