P.O. Box 20124 Clarksville, Tn. 37042
The Veteran's Temporary Emergency Assistance Program is part of a non-profit organization subsidized
completely by donations.  All applications submitted to the board for review will be adjudicated using only the
evidence submitted in support of the claim.  All evidence is essential and will be taken into consideration by the
board before arbitration.  Supporting documents submitted with this application will not be returned to the
applicant.  If applicants are approved for temporary assistance, monetary aid will be issued in the form of a
grant with regard to investigators recommendations and fund availability.

The use of this application is strictly reserved for the Veteran's Temporary Emergency Assistance Program and
should only be submitted after all forms of Federal, State, City/County and local aid has been exhausted.  All
information submitted is confidential.  Each application is adjudicated based on the written record and evidence
submitted by the applicant.  Applications must be completely and accurately filled in and sufficient information
provided to justify the need.  
Applicants are responsible for substantiating and/or validating their case prior to
submission.
 It is not the investigator's responsibility to obtain  any financial information or otherwise from any
source other than the applicant.  Investigators may however, assist in obtaining service records or service
information on behalf of the veteran.  Investigators must corroborate and prepare all supporting documents and
applicant information for presentation before the board.

Who is eligible?
Veterans and their dependant family members.  Veterans, meaning a person who served in the active armed
forces (United States Army, Navy, Marine Corps. Air Force and Coast Guard including their reserve components).

and/or income.  All applicants/dependants listed must reside with the veteran or by the veterans means.  All
necessary documentation will be requested for proof of relationship.

What is Temporary Assistance?
Temporary financial assistance is controlled, monetary aid granted for a short term (1-2 months) to facilitate
human necessities.  Grants are awarded as adjudicated to meet maintenance and/or health needs of the
veteran and/or family until other aid programs or financial planning have had reasonable opportunity to provide
or develop resources necessary to meet the full extend of the need.

Temporary aid is not a perpetual source of relief and is granted for human necessities only.  
Exclusions include,
but are not limited to, cell phones/phone bills, credit cards, excessive food expenses, and cable TV.
