VA Grants: Save Lives, Apply Now
from Huntsville News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
The Department of Veterans Affairs is now accepting applications for suicide prevention grants through the Staff Sergeant Parker Gordon Fox program. State and local governments plus organizations can apply for between $100,000 and $750,000 each. This round for fiscal year 2027 opens April 6th and closes June 12th, with a total pot of $112 million up for grabs. These funds target active-duty service members, veterans, and their families, focusing on those not already connected to VA services. Grantees can offer case management, peer support, links to VA care and benefits, emergency clinical help, or even faith-based and innovative methods to step in early. The program has already handed out $210 million to 111 groups across 46 states, territories, and tribal lands, proving effective at reaching those outside the VA system and cutting suicide risks.
