Public benefits are crucial to vulnerable populations across Florida including families, seniors, and veterans. Missing information on an application, incomplete paperwork, or lack of medical evidence can sometimes lead to a public benefits denial. Even if denied, you can file for an appeal with the help of Florida Rural Legal Services, Inc.
