Case Management

Fubar Studio Veteran Reinforcement works with each client to develop an individual treatment plan and coordinate the provision of services in the areas of Housing, Employment & Training & Wellness.

Objectives of the case management program are:

1. Physical and psycho-social stabilization
2. Development of life skills in areas including coping, communication, conflict resolution, and skills that aid in recovery from acute adversity such as job loss, substance use, PTSD, and mental illness
3. Development of employment skills and training to prepare veterans for successful reentry into the workplace.

1.  Health& Wellness services, including health screenings, medication monitoring, onsite support groups, and socialization skills training

2. Employment & Training services, including career counseling, training and education, job search support, and job placement

3. A variety of supportive services including:

• Guidance on applying for local, state, federal, and military assistance, including medical and mental health benefits, employment income support, food stamps, and veteran and Social Security benefits
• Pro bono legal assistance through referral to Legal Aid
• Discharge and transition plans to support former clients who have moved on to independent living situations. Follow-up support helps address adjustment issues before they reach crisis level, facilitating stability and reducing the chances of future homelessness.

Even after individuals successfully complete the program and move out, they are encouraged to maintain contact with their case managers and to use the Fubar Studio Veteran Reinforcement support services for as long as needed while they continue their transition to independent living.

As generations of Americans have witnessed, veterans can be counted on to get the job done. However, many veterans return home with physical or emotional injuries or limited job skills that restrict their ability to find and hold jobs.

Fubar Studio Veteran Reinforcement partners with educational institutions and businesses across New England to provide training, employment opportunities, placement, and support to our veterans in need.

Veterans returning from combat duty with PTSD, disabling physical injuries, and few if any marketable or transferable skills often can’t find or keep jobs. With no salary to support them, military families face a high foreclosure rate. Lack of support services and social isolation after discharge also contribute to homelessness. It’s a vicious cycle. Joblessness leads to homelessness, which leads to hopelessness, substance use disorder and/or depression, which limit the veteran’s ability to find a new job. The statistics are daunting:

• Veterans make up 1 in 4 of all homeless Americans.
• According to the Office of Community Planning and Development’s 2013 Annual Homeless Assessment Report, approximately 60,000 veterans were homeless at any given point during 2013.
• Over 2,100 veterans were experiencing homelessness at any given time in New England during 2013.
