Pending verificationOutreach script
Agency call script
A consistent, respectful opening for first contact — adapted for veteran and reentry programs. Always confirm the correct decision-maker before assuming any answer.
Opening script
"Good morning. My name is Cecil Jones. I'm a Marine Corps veteran with Preferred Housing Network. We're building a verified independent shared-housing referral resource for Flint, Raleigh and Detroit. We have a confirmed property in Flint, and we're determining the requirements for adding it as an appropriate private-market housing option. Who manages housing referrals or provider onboarding for your organization? I'd like to learn the housing arrangements your program accepts, required documentation, whether shared housing is permitted, and the correct next step."
Veteran-specific
"Does your SSVF, HUD-VASH or other veteran housing program consider independently operated shared housing, and what must be approved?"
Reentry-specific
"Who reviews proposed independent housing addresses, handles housing provider applications and authorizes any funded placement?"
Other questions to confirm
- Who makes the actual housing decision?
- What paperwork is required?
- What room configurations qualify?
- Does rent assistance exist?
- Who authorizes and pays it?
- What insurance or inspections are required?
