This Article examines the nature and extent of housing assistance provided
by the United States government to veterans of its military service. It finds that assistance remarkably limited and inconsistent with our nation’s history and rhetoric, providing a sobering corrective for those who wish to believe that public policy in the United States progressively becomes more humane or that national declarations are matched by national performance. The Article also considers the reasons and potential cures for these inadequacies and inconsistencies.

This audio conference covered the HUD-VA Supportive Housing (HUD-VASH) program.
