This month, we are joined by Dr. Jack Tsai, Research Director for VA's National Center on Homelessness Among Veterans; Dr. Thomas Byrne, an investigator with both the VA National Center on Homelessness among Veterans and the Center for Healthcare Outcomes and Implementation Research at the VA Bedford Healthcare System; and Ken Mueller, senior business operations specialist in the Homeless Programs Office to learn about returns to homelessness. Our guests talk about what returns to homelessness are, why it happens to formerly homeless Veterans, 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.
