VA is providing funding to assist with the costs to provide legal services to eligible veterans and participants

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration awarded a $104,880 project grant under the Legal Services for Veterans Grants program (CFDA 64.056) to Legal Aid of Southeastern Pennsylvania, Inc. to provide legal services to eligible veterans and participants experiencing or at risk of homelessness. This 12-month grant, effective August 1, 2024, will enable the organization to deliver a range of legal interventions, including free legal representation, protection order assistance, child custody resolution, divorce support, housing advocacy, and benefits issue navigation. As a non-profit legal aid provider, Legal Aid of Southeastern Pennsylvania will leverage this federal funding to address the critical legal challenges that can impede housing stability and access to essential services for vulnerable veterans in the region.
