Limited VA Aid & Attendance Grant

The Veterans Administration offers the Aid and Attendance pension benefit to qualifying veterans that can help reduce the burden of these costs, but the application process averages 60–120 days and causes seniors to miss opportunities for housing.

SHORE offers a two-month pension/benefit 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.
