Specially Adapted Housing Assistive Technology Grant
The Loan Guaranty Service (LGY), which is an office of the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA), Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), is announcing the availability of funds for the SAHAT Grant Program.
The objective of the grant is to encourage the development of new assistive technologies for specially adapted housing.
The Department of Veterans Affairs acknowledges there are many emerging technologies that could improve home adaptations or otherwise enhance a Veteran’s or Servicemember’s ability to live independently.
Therefore, VA has defined ‘‘new assistive technology’’ as an advancement that the Secretary determines could aid or enhance the ability of a Veteran or Servicemember to live in an adapted home.
