Who Qualifies

Primary family caregivers of eligible veterans with serious service-connected injuries

Eligibility requires the caregiver to support a veteran with a serious service-connected injury (post-9/11 era or pre-May 1975 under the comprehensive expansion). The schema gates on the caregiver tag because we don't model "caregiver of a specific population"; the description carries the veteran-specific gating detail.
