VA GPD Special Need Renewal NOFO
Grant Opportunity Analysis
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is offering renewal grants through its Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem (GPD) Special Need (SN) program, with approximately $5 million available annually for three years to support community-based organizations providing supportive housing for homeless Veterans with special needs. Eligible applicants must be current GPD SN grantees from FY 2025 and will use the funding to offset operational costs associated with providing private rooms and bathrooms for Veterans who are chronically mentally ill, frail elderly, caregivers of minor dependents, terminally ill, or women. This initiative is part of the VA's broader strategy to reduce homelessness among Veterans and enhance their access to care and services. Applications are due by February 17, 2026, and interested parties can contact Chelsea Watson at GPDgrants@va.gov or by phone at (202) 461-0056 for further information.
