Veteran housing

If you're a Veteran looking for affordable housing, you can use the MD Housing Search locator or contact a Veteran-specific housing program. 

If you need short-term or long-term housing, the Maryland Center for Veterans Education and Training (MCVET) offers facilities for your needs, including a day drop-in facility. 

In addition to housing, case managers work with Veterans during the first 60 days of residency.

Counseling and recovery classes are offered, and the case manager works with the Veteran on received VA benefits.

Education and employment are also components of care at MCVET.
