Home Modification Grants for Veterans

Home Modification Grants for Veterans

Veterans or Service Members who have certain service-connected disabilities may be entitled to a grant from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to construct an adapted home or modify an existing home to meet their adaptive needs. The goal of the Specially Adapted Housing (SAH) Grant Program is to provide a barrier-free living environment that allows the Veteran or Service Member to live independently. An application form can be downloaded from the VA's Web site

Julie - thanks for posting, I was unaware of this but know a few that this may benefit.

OCT

From: SAH-Specially Adapted Housing Fact Sheet- October 2008

#6. An eligible veteran or servicemember may receive a VA grant of not more than 50 percent of the cost of a specially adapted house, up to the aggregate maximum amount allowable by law. The current maximum grant [at this time] is $60,000. This amount will be adjusted annually based on a cost-of-construction index. The first adjustment will occur October 1, 2009, and each October 1 thereafter. Any future adjustments will increase the grant amounts or leave them unchanged.

#7. Public Law 109-233 authorized up to three usages of grant benefits [up to the maximum in aggregate].
