Navigating A Government Shutdown
A government shutdown can bring a lot of uncertainty and stress, especially if this is your first time experiencing one. Please take a deep breath and know you’re not alone.
We’ve put together the one-sheets below with resources to help guide you through this time. As you navigate the days ahead, remember to take care of yourself and your loved ones.
Navigating Government Shutdown dtd 30 Jan 2026: Please note that this will change as we get updates. For “services expected to remain available”, these were services available during the last shutdown.
Veteran Field Guide to Government Shutdown (VA)
If you are feeling anxiety and or want to plan ahead to make sure your 2026 is off on the right foot, we highly recommend you connect with a financial counselor at your nearest military installation. For a list of financial counselors and other resources, please check out our January convening blog page.
If you need support or access to resources, the SAY San Diego Military Family Resource Center is here to help. You can reach them at mfrc@saysandiego.org
