About this episode
This month, we are joined by Sean Clark, National Director for Veterans Justice Programs and Madolyn Gingell, National Coordinator for Legal Services for Veterans to learn about why it’s important to help Veterans get their “second chance”. Our guests talk about what justice involvement is, how past incarceration can impact Veterans’ risk for homelessness, and what VA is doing about it. Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness are strongly encouraged to contact the National Call Center for Homeless Veterans at (877) 4AID-VET (877-424-3838) for assistance.Find your nearest VA:https://www.va.gov/find-locations Closed Caption Transcript is available at: https://www.sharedfedtraining.org/Podcasts/EVH_S1EP12.pdf =============================== Learn more about VA resources to help homeless Veterans:https://www.va.gov/homeless Find your nearest Veterans Justice Outreach Specialist:https://www.va.gov/homeless/vjo.asp Find your nearest legal clinic via VA’s Office of General Counsel:https://www.va.gov/ogc/legalservices.asp Learn more about Veterans Reentry Search Service (VRSS):https://vrss.va.gov/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKilRc8prBc Learn more about VA’s Status Query and Response Exchange System (SQUARES): https://www.va.gov/homeless/squares Learn more about VA’s Legal Services for Veterans program:https://www.va.gov/HOMELESS/LSV.asp Check Out Stateside Legal’s resources: https://www.statesidelegal.org/finding-legal-help Check out the American Bar Association’s Military Pro Bono Project:https://www.americanbar.org/groups/legal_services/milvets/initiatives/
