    Rating Information

    Not currently rated


    Ratings are calculated from one or more beacon scores. Currently, we require either an Accountability & Finance beacon or an Impact & Measurement beacon to be eligible for a Charity Navigator rating. Note: The absence of a rating does not indicate a positive or negative assessment; it only indicates that we have not yet evaluated this organization.
    See rating report below to learn why this organization is not currently eligible.

    Historical Ratings
    Charity Navigator's ratings previously did not consider Leadership & Adaptability, Culture & Community, or Impact & Measurement. The historic rating mainly reflects a version of today’s Accountability and Finance score. More information on our previous rating methodologies can be found on our rating methodology page.
    Rating histories are available for a growing number of rated organizations. Check back later to see if this organization has a rating history!

    Impact Statement
    $0.01 increases the government benefits claimed by a disabled veteran by one dollar. [2021 USD]
    Program Context
    The nonprofit provides assistance to help disabled veterans claim the government benefits they are owed.
    Data Time Period
    1/1/17 to 12/31/17
    Benchmark for Scoring
    Impact scores of veterans disability benefits programs are based on the return of benefits secured per dollar spent. Programs receive an Impact score of 100 if every dollar spent results in $1.50 in benefits secured to a veteran, and a score of 80 if a dollar spent results in $0.85 to a veteran. If a nonprofit reports impact but doesn't meet the benchmark for cost-effectiveness, it earns a score of 65. One dollar spent by this program results in more than $1.50 in benefits secured for a veteran.
    Methodology
    This impact score was determined through the Veterans Disability Benefits Assistance methodology which is fully detailed in the Charity Navigator Guide to Ratings. Analysis conducted in 2024 by Charity Navigator using data submitted by the nonprofit, theory and evidence from scientific research studies, and public datasets.
    Data Source
    The nonprofit submitted data on how many claims it filed successfully or how many veterans it served, as well as the dollar value of claims filed successfully.
