Operation Bravo Zulu is designed to provide temporary financial assistance in the form of electric utility assistance to honorably discharged veterans living in Hidalgo County who have a combined household in-come at or below 200% of Federal Poverty Level (fpl) as defined by the United States Department of Health and Human Services.
The Project offers veterans who fall between the 0% and 200% (fpl) marks the opportunity to qualify for this temporary assistance. The program offers up to $600 in utility assistance for current bills, arrears and security deposits. In addition, veterans applying for this program will be given the option to participate in a comprehensive needs assessment by a licensed social worker. Based on the needs assessment, referrals will be made to appropriate agencies that can successfully address those needs.
