Notes
Veterans ~
IAVA has case managers standing by to assist veterans and their families affected by Hurricane Sandy.
Our case managers include veterans and social workers with years of experience dealing with veterans. They know the systems, know the resources, and know where veterans are coming from. They can help match veterans with resources to meet their needs.
At this time we are here to connect you with resources in the following areas:
Housing - referral to agencies that provide assistance with house repairs, foreclosure/eviction avoidance
Homelessness - referral to agencies that provide assistance finding temporary or permanent housing
Public Benefits - assistance with filing for food stamps (SNAP), medicaid, and public assistance (welfare)
Financial - referral to agencies that provide assistance with providing for essential needs such as food, rent, utilities (gas, electric)
Mental Health - assistance in connecting to clinics which provides mental health support
As we are not a direct service provider, we do not provide the following:
Direct financial assistance
Clinical mental health services
Transportation to and from appointments
Direct legal services
Direct benefits assistance
