Old Pueblo Community Services:
“Our team is working with a disabled Veteran who is unable to walk and living with Brain Blast Syndrome and PTSD. She applied for VA Service-Connected Disability Compensation, but her application is still in the review stage. She is unemployed but working to get her commercial driver’s license and searching for a job. Right now, she is in the process of waiting – for the benefits to come through, for her training program to finish, and for a new job to start. Money from the United for Southern Arizona COVID-19 Fund allowed us to help her pay rent for March and avoid eviction. We look forward to supporting her with her next steps.”
