National Comparison of Literally Homeless Male and Female VA Service Users
Housing Chronically Homeless Veterans
Rapidly placing homeless Veterans with severe mental illness into permanent housing is one important goal of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development‐Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (HUD‐VASH) program; however, no research has tested whether an explicit organizational alignment of this goal with revised practices could improve outcomes. A demonstration project initiated in 2010 to reform housing placement practices in a metropolit…
Universal Screening for Homelessness and Risk for Homelessness in the Veterans Health Administration
We examined data for all veterans who completed the Veterans Health Administration’s national homelessness screening instrument between October 1, 2012, and January 10, 2013. Among veterans who were not engaged with the US Department of Veterans Affairs homeless system and presented for primary care services, the prevalence of recent housing instability or homelessness was 0.9% and homelessness risk was 1.2%. Future research will refine outreach …

Challenges Associated With Screening for Traumatic Brain Injury Among US Veterans Seeking Homeless Services
We identified the prevalence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) among homeless veterans and assessed the TBI–4, a screening tool created to identify TBI history. Between May 2010 and October 2011, 800 US veterans from two hospitals, one eastern (n = 122) and one western (n = 678) completed some or all measures. Findings suggested that 47% of veterans seeking homeless services had a probable history of TBI (data for prevalence obtained only at the we…
New to Care
Objectives. We compared service use among homeless and nonhomeless veterans newly enrolled in a medical home model and identified patterns of use among homeless veterans associated with reductions in emergency department (ED) use. Methods. We used case–control matching with a nested cohort analysis to measure 6-month health services use, new diagnoses, and care use patterns in veterans at the Providence, Rhode Island, Veterans Affairs Medical Cen…
Housing Instability and Mental Distress among US Veterans
Evidence has suggested increased risk for homelessness and suicide among US veterans, but little is known about the associations between housing instability and psychological distress (including suicidal ideation). We examined frequent mental distress (FMD) and suicidal ideation among a probability-based sample of 1767 Nebraska veterans who participated in the 2010 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey who had and had not experienced housing…
Risk Factors for Becoming Homeless Among a Cohort of Veterans Who Served in the Era of the Iraq and Afghanistan Conflicts
Objectives. In this population-based cohort study, we assessed baseline risk factors for homelessness, including the role of service in the Iraq or Afghanistan conflicts, among a large cohort of recent veterans. Methods. Data for this study came from administrative records for 310 685 veterans who separated from active military duty from July 1, 2005, to September 30, 2006. We used survival analysis methods to determine incidence rates and risk f…
Suicidal Ideation in Veterans Receiving Treatment for Opiate Dependence
Persons with opiate use disorders, especially veterans, have a number of both chronic and acute indicators of risk for suicide, but are not typically screened for suicidal ideation on a routine basis, beyond initial evaluations. One hundred one veterans receiving treatment for opiate dependence at an urban VA medical center were screened for suicidal ideation. Over 24% reported some suicidal ideation. Current ideation was associated with severe c…
Dissemination and Feasibility of a Cognitive-Behavioral Treatment for Substance Use Disorders and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in the Veterans Administration
This article describes a small dissemination effort and provides initial efficacy data for use of Seeking Safety, a cognitive-behavioral treatment for comorbid substance use disorders (SUD) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), in a VA setting. After providing a daylong interactive training in Seeking Safety to front-line clinicians, a cotherapist group practice model was implemented. Following 14 months of clinician training and an uncontrol…
