Douglas County Veterans Services receives $10,000 grant to continue helping those who’ve served
Are you – or do you know – a Douglas County Veteran needing emergency assistance with housing, food, transportation, employment, mental health care or other urgent concerns?
You may apply to receive Veterans Emergency Assistance Funds now through June 2025.
The funding – the result of a grant from the Colorado Department of Military and Veterans Affairs – is part of a robust arsenal of resources available through the Douglas County Veterans Service Office, serving Veterans and their families in Douglas County.
The Veterans Service Office provides access to special programs and services, while also assisting Veterans with applying for benefits, employment assistance, medical and mental health care, and coordination to other services, such as transportation. The Office also helps surviving spouses, dependents’ parents and dependents with claims for pension, disability, burial reimbursements and more.
Staffed entirely by military Veterans, trained by, and working in cooperation with the Colorado Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, all working staff are accredited by the National Association of County Veterans Service Office.
