The program is funded by a combination of state and local funds. DVS pays for 75% and your city or town pays for 25% of the approved benefits. There are income and asset limits for the program. As a general rule, income and asset requirements are as follows: family of one – monthly income less than $2,081and an asset limit of $5,000; family of two – monthly income less than $2,818 and an asset limit of $9,800.

The VSOs are also able to help Veterans apply for Federal VA benefits, local benefits and provide food assistance monthly.
