Advisory Committee on Homeless Veterans; Notice of Meeting

    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) gives notice under the 
Federal Advisory Committee Act, 38 U.S.C. App. 2 that a meeting of the 
Advisory Committee on Homeless Veterans will be held April 6, 2016 
through April 8, 2016. On April 6 and April 7, the Committee will meet 
at the Department of Veterans Affairs, 810 Vermont Avenue NW., Room 
930, Washington, DC, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. On April 8, the 
Committee will meet at the Department of Veterans Affairs, 810 Vermont 
Avenue NW., Room 930, Washington, DC, from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. The 
meeting is open to the public.
    The purpose of the Committee is to provide the Secretary of 
Veterans Affairs with an on-going assessment of the effectiveness of 
the policies, organizational structures, and services of VA in 
assisting homeless Veterans. The Committee shall assemble and review 
information related to the needs of homeless Veterans and provide 
advice on the most appropriate means of providing assistance to that 
subset of the Veteran population. The Committee will make 
recommendations to the Secretary regarding such activities.
    The agenda will include briefings from officials at VA and other 
agencies regarding services for homeless Veterans. The Committee will 
also receive a briefing on the annual report that was developed after 
the last meeting of the Advisory Committee on Homeless Veterans and 
will then discuss topics for its upcoming annual report and 
recommendations to the Secretary of Veterans Affairs.
    No time will be allocated at this meeting for receiving oral 
presentations from the public. Interested parties should provide 
written comments on issues affecting homeless Veterans for review by 
the Committee to Ms. Lisa Pape, Designated Federal Officer, VHA 
Homeless Programs Office (10NC1), Department of Veterans Affairs, 90 K 
Street, Northeast, Washington, DC, or email to [email protected] or 
[email protected].
    Members of the public who wish to attend should contact both 
Charles Selby and Timothy Underwood of the VHA Homeless Program Office 
by March 18, 2016, at [email protected] and 
[email protected], while providing their name, professional 
affiliation, address, and phone number. Because the meeting is being 
held in a government building, a valid government issued ID must be 
presented at the Guard's Desk as a part of the clearance process. 
Therefore, you should allow an additional 15 minutes before the meeting 
begins. Attendees who require reasonable accommodation should state so 
in their requests.
