As a result, changes in their income will typically impact more people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">About 22 percent of student veterans surveyed expressed concern about buying groceries for their family, and roughly the same said they are now worried about making their mortgage or rent payments on time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those numbers are likely to have increased since the poll was conducted two weeks ago. SVA officials said they will be conducting additional polls in coming weeks, to gauge potential problems and concerns as they emerge in the community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new survey from Student Veterans of America shows significant concerns from members about the impact of the coronavirus outbreak on
