The Homeless Veteran's Project

Always Be A Blessing!

Operation M.O.V.E.

(Mission Occupation Vocation Education)

The Self-Help Program / HUD-VASH targets America’s most vulnerable homeless

populations, including those with medical, mental health and or substance use

disorders. Its primary target populations are those Americans who have experienced

multiple episodes of homelessness, are suffering from mental health and/or medical

complications, have been homeless four or more times in the prior three years, or who

have been continuously homeless for one year or longer. The Self-Help Program also

considers, both single Veteran applicants & Veterans with dependent family members

(HUD-VASH), and those of the civilian community. However, since The Self-Help

Program is designed for the homeless Veterans / Civilians (and or veterans & families),

the household must include the eligible Veteran / Civilians and cannot include any

family members with a Lifetime Sexual Offender Registry status. The Self-Help Program

guidelines become important once the Veteran’s / Civilian’s eligibility has been

favorably determined by The Self-Help Program and he or she is approved by The

Self-Help Program Case Manager. At that time, the Veteran / Civilian must complete a

TSHP application and follow the TSHP’s guidelines to obtain housing. This program

consists of vocational training and adult educational training, which includes obtaining

one’s own personal / professional business.

That is to say: Self-employment provides work and good mental health; primarily for the

founders (or in this case veterans of TSHP).

Entrepreneurship / TSHP Veterans: refers to all new businesses, including

self-employment and businesses that never intend to grow big or become registered, but

startups refer to new businesses that intend to grow beyond the founders / TSHP

Veterans, to have employees, and grow large.

In summary:

Self-employment: an organization created with the primary intention to give a job

to the veteran, simultaneously instilling confidence, a sense of self-control, and

positive mental independence and creation.

Veteran entrepreneurship: all new organizations.

Veteran Startup: a temporary new organization created with the intention to be

bigger (at least have employees).

Important to note: that each veteran resident are able to progress at the own pace

and is assured that they’re never in danger of being homeless; whatever the

progression or setback in their personal goals.

Unlike other programs that meet the bare minimums qualification to house veterans,

TSHP will house, feed, employ (work from home), self-employ (contract to do work to

keep the grounds of the facility), educate (attend our independent business classes at

college / attend college for a business degree), and prepare the veteran to embrace the

challenges of America’s vastly changing society with the confidence, knowledge, and

aggression to secure mental, psychological, social, and financial independence.

1 It is very important that the entire household that will be living with the Veteran be identified at the time of referral

to the PHA to assure that an appropriate unit size is identified and because the limitations on PHA screening refer

to all members of the family referred to the PHA (or Public Housing Authority).

The TSHP will expect proof of a qualifying income level, and will also expect

participating Veterans / Civilians to follow the landlord’s tenancy expectations. Cordially,
