The proposed "Veteran Homelessness Act" establishes an Office of Veteran Homelessness within the Michigan Department of Military and Veterans Affairs. This office will be responsible for identifying and coordinating available resources and programs to support homeless veterans, providing outreach services, and assisting veterans in accessing these resources. The office will also maintain a website detailing available services and will be tasked with monitoring and recommending changes to state and federal laws related to veteran homelessness. The office director will be appointed by the department director and will oversee the operations of the office.

Additionally, the bill creates a Veteran Homelessness Fund within the state treasury, which will be administered by the department. The fund will receive appropriations, including an initial allocation of $1,000,000 for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, to support the office's activities. The office is required to submit an annual report detailing the scope of veteran homelessness in Michigan, challenges faced, available resources, and recommendations for future actions to address the issue. This comprehensive approach aims to enhance support for homeless veterans and work towards eliminating homelessness among this population in the state.
