I will perform as the case manager on Support Services for Veteran Families program cases. Put too the task I will be responsible for providing a case management plan that will include the provision of housing placement services, temporary financial assistance, emergency housing when necessary, and other support services from both internal and external resources to help stabilize the position of “at-risk” families. My job as a case manager is to stabilize the family to gain or retain permanent housing, and to reinforce self-sufficiency to better the possibility of the veteran families going into homelessness. I have experience with HMIS. I will perform data entry information into the HMIS & Client Tracking systems that are available.
