For Referral Partners

Housing Pathways for Veterans and Behavioral Health Clients

NSPS operates two specialized programs under one organization. Whether you're referring a veteran or a behavioral health client, one form routes to the right program — and our team handles the rest.

Choose Your Program

Which Program Fits Your Referral?

Each program serves a distinct population. Select the one that fits — or flag both if your client is a veteran with behavioral health needs.

Referring a Veteran?

Home Front coordinates housing placements for veterans who need stability, structure, and a safe next step after service.

Who Can Refer
  • VA facilities and hospitals
  • Veteran-serving organizations
  • Case managers and coordinators
  • Community partners with referral authority

Referring a Behavioral Health Client?

Safety Net coordinates housing placements for adults with behavioral health needs transitioning from inpatient and community settings.

Who Can Refer
  • Hospitals and psychiatric discharge teams
  • Behavioral health providers and ACTT teams
  • Discharge planners and case managers
  • Community partners with referral authority
Refer a Client

Referring a veteran with behavioral health needs? Both programs may apply. Our shared referral form has a dual-program option — submit once and our team coordinates the routing across Home Front and Safety Net. Submit a dual-program referral →

Our Process

How Referrals Work — Across Both Programs

Regardless of which program your referral routes to, the process is the same — structured, responsive, and designed to reduce burden on your team.

1

Submit a Referral

Use our referral form — select Home Front, Safety Net, or both for dual-program cases. Takes under 5 minutes.

2

Review & Match

The appropriate program team reviews the referral and assesses placement fit based on support level, budget, location, and environment.

3

Coordinate

We communicate with your team, relevant landlords, and any other partners to move toward a viable placement.

4

Follow Through

We check in at 7 and 30 days post-placement to confirm stability and address any emerging needs early.
