Many thanks to July 20, 2010 speaker
DANIEL S. MARTIN, of the Texas Benefits
Coalition, who gave us a fine summary of
VETERANS BENEFITS:  How to obtain them
cost free with dedicated professional guidance.  
Although veterans or their widowed spouses
cannot be Medicaid recipients to be eligible,
there are many other conditions under which
persons may quality.  They and their family
members are encouraged to contact the
organization to explore options.  The
organization is an all volunteer effort and they
will reply to requests as soon as possible.

HACOC was privileged to be a beneficiary
of the July 11, 2010 FASHIONISTA
EXPRESS.  Shown at the  July 20 HACOC
meeting is organizer HELENA BASS, as she
presents a $500 donation to the
Houston
Area Continuity of Care Discretionary Fund.

The event, which was held at The Forum at
Memorial Woods, featured a wardrobe
exchange of  clothing, shoes, handbags and
accessories that needed new homes.
Participants could bring 10 or more clean,
gently used items and choose up to 10 pieces
from the collection others brought to the
event.  We thank Helena for her generosity
to HACOC and those to whom we offer
assistance.
