Haley House Admission Criteria
| |
|
|
|
| The admission criteria are
based on the Fisher House criteria, as the Haley House is an interim program
until the Fisher House is completed. |
| |
|
|
|
| Family members are
defined as an important person to the veteran or active duty service member
who he/she believes as being their primary support system (e.g. family
member can be a fiancė, girlfriend/boyfriend, neighbor, etc.). The
intent is to provide temporary lodging to the individual of the
veteran/active duty soldier who will be able to provide comfort to them in
their time of need. An additional room can be authorized if the
support system is such that 2 rooms are needed (e.g. divorced parents of a
young service member). |
