Honoring Those Who Served

Aid & Attendance Pension

A monthly supplement added to the VA pension for veterans (or surviving spouses) who need help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and eating, or who are blind or in a nursing home. In 2026, the maximum monthly benefit is approximately $2,424 for a single veteran, $1,558 for a surviving spouse, or $2,874 for a veteran with a dependent spouse. Eligibility requires wartime service, limited income and assets, and a documented need for assistance.

Housebound Benefits

For veterans who are substantially confined to their home due to a permanent disability. This provides an additional monthly payment on top of the VA pension — approximately $1,776 per month for a single veteran. You may qualify if you have a single permanent disability rated at 100% and are substantially confined to your home, or if you have a 100% disability plus a separate disability rated at 60% or more.

Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC)

Provides a monthly stipend to family members who serve as primary caregivers for eligible veterans with serious injuries. Benefits include a monthly stipend based on the level of care needed, health insurance through CHAMPVA if the caregiver is not otherwise covered, mental health counseling, caregiver training, and at least 30 days per year of respite care.

Veteran Directed Care (VDC)

A program that gives veterans a budget to manage their own home care — including hiring family members or friends as paid caregivers. The veteran works with the VA and an Aging and Disability Resource Center to create a spending plan. Available at select VA medical centers including those serving Colorado veterans.

VA Healthcare & Community Care

Veterans enrolled in VA healthcare may be eligible for home health aide services, homemaker services, and adult day care through the VA or through community care providers. We coordinate with VA healthcare teams and can transport veterans to VA appointments across the Front Range.
