Aid and attendance rental grant
The Veterans Administration offers the Aid and Attendance pension program to qualifying veterans that can help reduce the burden of these costs, but the application process averages 60 days. This can delay care and cause seniors to miss opportunities for housing.
SHORE offers a two-month grant to eligible senior veterans that allows them to move into their new communities while their Aid and Attendance application is being processed. This ensures they can get the care they need and join the community they seek without fear of not having enough money to cover their expenses.
Senior veterans deserve affordable housing and support as they age.
Eligibility
- The senior housing community must verify the move-in date for the veteran.
- If the veteran does not have housing already, they can work with one of SHORE’s nonprofit allies that assist seniors in finding housing
Veteran must be working with an Aid and Attendance assistance organization that is allied with SHORE that will determine eligibility for these benefits
Additional income-related requirements must be met based on Aid and Attendance benefits qualifications
