What is a common benefit available to veterans with non-service connected disabilities?

Veterans with non-service connected disabilities may qualify for a non-service connected pension, which is a financial benefit designed to help those who have limited income and who are either permanently and totally disabled or over the age of 65. This pension provides monthly payments to eligible veterans, offering support to help cover basic living expenses.

This benefit is specific to veterans whose disabilities are not related to their military service, distinguishing it from other funding or assistance programs that may target specific needs or situations, such as those resulting from service-connected conditions. The focus of the non-service connected pension is on the financial need of the veteran, promoting an increase in quality of life for veterans who may not have significant resources or who require assistance due to the impact of their disabilities.

Other options provided relate to different forms of assistance but do not specifically align with the benefits available for non-service connected disabilities in the same way the non-service connected pension does.
