Description
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is offering grants to eligible entities to plan, develop, manage, and implement adaptive sports programs for disabled Veterans and members of the Armed Forces. The goal of the program is to provide opportunities for Veterans to improve their independence, well-being, and quality of life through adaptive sports and therapeutic arts programs. The grants will support programs that provide adaptive sports activities, training, and technical assistance to program administrators, coaches, and other individuals. Eligible entities include Non-Federal Government entities with significant experience in managing large-scale adaptive sports programs. The application package should include a narrative, budget details, and other required components. The VA will review applications based on criteria such as programmatic plan, adaptive sports activities, program objectives and design, program management and past performance, capability for successful execution of program, collaborations, financial capability and plan, and reasonableness of costs.
