Veterans

New AARP resource connects veterans to adapted housing grants from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

An AARP survey shows more than half of veterans are unaware of their housing benefits, and a quarter need financial help for home modifications. New AARP resources can connect Ohio's veterans to adapted housing grants from the VA.

Ohioans who provide care for veterans spend on average 1.5 times higher than what other family caregivers spend on out-of-pocket expenses.

Most veterans are unaware they can receive free assistance with the PACT Act, leaving them vulnerable to fraud.
