???? ?????????? ???????????? The VA is proposing a groundbreaking grant program to fund legal support, aiding Veterans in accessing benefits and reviewing military discharge statuses. This initiative is part of ongoing efforts to increase care and opportunities for former service members, especially those with other-than-honorable discharges. ?? Legal Support: This program aims to fund entities that provide legal assistance to Veterans and former service members for benefits access, military discharge reviews, and corrections to military records. ?? Expanded Access: The program targets Veterans with other-than-honorable discharges, including those facing discrimination, assault, or mental health challenges, allowing them to reapply for VA care and benefits. ?? Encouragement to Apply: VA Secretary McDonough urges former service members to apply for VA benefits, emphasizing the support available to navigate complex review processes. ?? Proven Impact: In the past decade, VA granted eligibility to 75% of those with other-than-honorable discharges, benefiting over 57,000 individuals. ??? Public Comment: The rulemaking will be published and open for public comment starting October 2, 2024. ?? Ongoing Efforts: This proposal builds on existing initiatives like the Legal Services for Homeless Veterans program, which awarded $11.5 million in grants in 2024. ?? https://loom.ly/dI-R5-s #VeteransRights #OrangeCounty #LosAngeles #SupportOurHeroes #Grants #Veterans #VeteransLegalInstitute #JusticeForHeroes #SupportOurVeterans #VeteranAdvocacy #PTSD #LegalAid #CommunitySupport #VeteranStories #Army #Navy #AirForce #Marines #CoastGuard #SpaceForce
