Staff Spotlight

Kelly Humphrey
VCAP Program Advisor
I have been with MTSCIL since November 2025, working as a VCAP Advisor in the VDC Program. I have extensive experience in customer service and Veteran services, focusing on health insurance and assisting unhoused Veterans in finding housing and employment. What I enjoy most about my role is meeting new Veterans, listening to their stories, and getting to know them as individuals. Each Veteran has their own unique experiences and needs, and I take pride in building relationships, providing support, and helping them gain greater independence while staying safely in their homes and communities.
