Critical Financial Assistance

Do you need help with overdue bills, repairs, or other critical family needs? We may be able to help!

Are you an active-duty military member or a veteran struggling to make ends meet? Are you deployed or dealing with a service-connected wound, illness, or injury? If so, you are not alone. Fortunately, there are organizations that help veterans financially during times of financial crisis, such as Operation Homefront’s Critical Financial Assistance program.

Our program is designed to provide short-term financial help for military families who are experiencing financial hardship. To find out if you qualify, please review our eligibility criteria. If you have any questions, please feel free to check out our FAQs or give us a call at 1-877-264-3968 (toll-free).

The process includes a 10-day Application and Initial Processing Period (Days 1-10), a 10-day Evaluation and Review Period (Days 11-20), and a 10-day Notification and Final Processing Period (Days 21 to end of month).
