Assistance Request Forms

Finding Support

Thank you for reaching out to the Thomas A. Biddle Foundation for assistance. We understand that this is a difficult time, and we're here to help you navigate it. We offer a variety of assistance for families of veterans lost to suicide, including support for urgent bills, education costs, and other short-term needs. Surviving spouses and children are eligible for assistance and, under certain circumstances, parents and siblings may also be eligible. We are committed to helping your family on the journey toward healing and a brighter future.

Eligibility

To be eligible for assistance, your veteran must have died by suicide and you must have a copy of their DD Form 214. To obtain this form, click here to submit a request through the National Archives website using the eVetrecs online tool. Alternatively, you can complete and submit the Standard Form SF-180.
