Veteran Claims & Benefits Assistance
in North Alabama
Helping Veterans secure the benefits they’ve earned
The Veteran Claims and Benefits (VCB) program helps Veterans in North Alabama navigate the often complex process of applying for VA disability benefits. SSV’s accredited counselors work closely with Veterans and their families to ensure they receive the disability compensation, pension, and benefits they are entitled to.
Our Veteran Claims & Benefits program is ideal for Veterans and their families from all service branches navigating the complex VA benefits system — including those with disabilities, pensions, or those involved in the appeals process.
In 2024, we helped Veterans secure $11.2 million in disability and pension awards, representing an impact multiplier of 1.65 — more than $16 million in total community impact.
