In Your Service: The Veteran's Friend Second Edition

A little-known, underused Department of Veterans Affairs program exists that can assist with costs for a wide variety of needs-assisted living, enhanced independent living, home health care and nursing homes among them. It's called the Veterans Non-Service Connected Disability Pension, or Aid and Attendance Benefit. However, you likely don't know about it because the government has rarely promoted it. Many thousands of wartime veterans or their surviving spouses qualify for this benefit. It might be you. In this vital book, financial planner, U.S. Marine Corps veteran and veteran's advocate Galen Maddy discusses the Aid and Attendance Benefit, and how a small group of attorneys and dedicated, certified individuals are working pro bono to assist eligible men and women in receiving this lifelong benefit.
