Shallow Subsidy Program

Shallow Subsidy

The Shallow Subsidy program provides housing assistance to US Veterans and Veteran families with low to extremely low income.

  • Rental assistance – 50% of rent paid for up to 2-years
  • Light case management
  • Community assisted support services

Veterans Who Qualify…

  • Do not need intensive case management
