I am in need of assistance at home. As a Veteran, is there any benefit I can receive to help pay for my care?

As a Veteran, or the surviving spouse of a Veteran, you may be able to get a monthly stipend to help you with your care at home (referred to as “Aid and Attendance”). This benefit is also available to you if you reside in an Assisted Living facility. You must meet certain financial criteria to be eligible.

  • My child has special needs. What government benefits are available?
  • When I pass away, how do I leave assets in a protective way for my children and grandchildren?
  • How do I keep my plan current?
  • How will financial and health care decisions be made and by whom, if I am not able to make them?
