Synopsis

The VA NVSPSE Program announces the availability of up to

$16,000,000 (subject to the availability of Federal funds) for the VA Adaptive Sports

Grant Program. VA will award grants to qualifying organizations to plan, develop,

manage, and implement programs to provide adaptive sports, training, and other

opportunities for Veterans and members of the Armed Forces with disabilities.

Applications focused on equine therapy addressing the mental health needs of Veterans

will not be considered under this NOFO and must be submitted to Funding Opportunity

Number VA-EQUINE-25.

An applicant must qualify as a Non-Federal Government entity with significant experience in managing a large-scale adaptive sports program, as defined in 38 C.F.R. § 77.2, for persons with disabilities if those disabilities are the same as those of Veterans with disabilities, and members of the Armed Forces with disabilities. “Significant experience” and “large-scale” are addressed in 38 C.F.R. § 77.2. Must manage the grant in a non-profit capacity.
