My aunt receives va pension, can i claim her as a dependent?

My aunt currently receives a pension from VA for low-income/no income vets. I wanted to know if I am able to claim her as a dependent on my taxes, as I do pay for half of her expenses. 

I just don't want anything to affect her pension. I am afraid that if i claim that I'm helping her, that her payments would be affected.

Thank you.
