L. 117-328) requires the VA to conduct a study on financial and credit counseling by querying financial and credit counselors, homeless programs providers, and subject matters experts regarding the use of financial and credit counseling services. The intent of this study is to identify financial and credit counseling needs of Veterans experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing homelessness, the financial and credit counseling services offered to these Veterans, the specific barriers that these Veterans have in accessing these financial and credit counseling services, and the effects of financial and credit counseling services on such outcomes as employment, housing status, income, and credit score. The information collected will be used to inform VA policy makers, program managers, and process improvement investigators about how to enhance financial and credit counseling services that are offered to Veterans experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing homelessness. The results of this study, which will not include personally identifiable information about the individual respondents, will be shared with Congress via a congressionally mandated report. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
