START WITH YOUR ROLE

Veterans

Veteran-specific routes plus shared basic needs. Pick the situation in front of you.

Need a program to contact?

Use the veterans resource network for housing, benefits, care, work, family support and service records. These guides explain the shared processes.

Open veteran & military-family support
01
Ready to use

Getting someone into the housing system (coordinated entry)

Get them assessed once at the right access point for who they are, then keep them reachable and document ready.

02
Ready to use

Applying for food, cash help, or AHCCCS through DES

One online application covers all three. The interview and the mail are where most people lose benefits.

03
Ready to use

A client is in a mental health crisis

If life is in danger, call 9-1-1. Otherwise call the Arizona crisis line together. After the crisis, connect them to ongoing care.

04
Ready to use

A client is fleeing domestic violence

The regional DV hotline closed in May 2026. Call the shelters directly, starting with the one that fits the household.

05
Ready to use

Client got a utility shutoff notice

Check the shutoff date, call the utility, then use the assistance route for the client’s address.

Not sure which guide fits?

Go back and search with the words on the notice, letter, or problem. Do not enter a client’s name.
