Nonprofit
HCHIPS Help. 🧭 Navigation
The country's first coordinated network of organizations dedicated to serving the military community, operated by Syracuse University's D'Aniello Institute for Veterans and Military Families. Operates in 15 locations including 3 affiliate communities, connecting local public, private, and nonprofit providers through a shared coordinated-care platform. Uses a no-wrong-door approach across 20 service categories, routing clients to best-fit providers and maintaining referral history and accountability rather than handing off and losing track. Enrollment is open regardless of discharge status. Distinguished by rigorous outcome research — IVMF and VHA researchers have published studies on VA Medical Center participation in the networks and on which factors drive successful referral resolution, finding that network-level factors like referral accuracy and resource adequacy matter more than client demographics alone.

Fry Scholarship (VA)
Government
HCHIPS Help. 🎓 Education
Full Post-9/11 GI Bill education benefits for surviving spouses and children of service members who died in the line of duty after September 10, 2001 — named for Marine Gunnery Sergeant John David Fry, killed in action in Iraq in 2006, who left behind a wife and three young children. Each eligible family member holds an independent 36-month entitlement — benefits are not shared or divided. Covers full in-state tuition at public schools, up to $29,920 per year at private schools (2025-2026), monthly housing allowance, and $1,000/yr books stipend. Children eligible ages 18-33. Surviving spouses may remarry and retain eligibility under a 2025 rule change. The service member does not need to have died in combat — line-of-duty deaths during training, accidents, or service-related illness all qualify.

Military Spouse Employment Partnership (MSEP)
Government
HCHIPS Help. 👨‍👩‍👧 Family
Department of Defense program connecting military spouses with employers who have made a formal commitment to recruit, hire, promote, and retain them. Hundreds of partner employers span federal agencies, Fortune 500 companies, small businesses, and nonprofits, with a searchable job portal maintained through Military OneSource. Exists because military spouses face roughly 25 percent unemployment and a 25 percent wage gap relative to civilian counterparts, with 77 percent wanting or needing work — driven largely by relocation every two to four years and state-by-state licensing barriers. Free to spouses; partner employers commit publicly and report on hiring.

Mission Roll Call
Nonprofit
CCHIPS Community. 📣 Advocacy
National nonpartisan 501(c)(3) veterans advocacy organization that amplifies the voices of veterans, their families, and supporters to influence public policy. Its model is built on gathering verified veteran input through large-scale polling, direct outreach, town halls, and media, then translating that input into research and delivering it directly to policymakers who control healthcare, benefits, and quality of life. Founded on the premise that more than 40 percent of veterans are unaffiliated with the VA or any veteran-serving organization and therefore go unheard in policy — the same access gap this map is built to address. Each year it asks its community to name their most pressing concerns and turns those into a formal advocacy agenda; CEO Jim Whaley presented the 2026 priorities — access to quality healthcare inside and outside the VA, support for service-connected conditions, veteran suicide prevention, and housing and homelessness prevention — in testimony before the joint House and Senate Veterans Affairs Committee hearing on March 4, 2026. Reports reaching over 1.3 million veterans and supporters, and has collaborated with America's Warrior Partnership and philanthropic partners including The Marcus Foundation. Distinct from the unrelated Project Roll Call (EIN 86-1418811). EIN 93-3782231.
