Last Updated: June 2, 2025

Ending and preventing homelessness among Veterans is a priority for VA. VA's Homeless Programs constitute the Nation's largest integrated

network of homeless treatment and assistance services for Veterans. The LSV-H Grant Program's purpose is to award legal services grants to eligible public or non-profit private entities who will provide legal services to eligible Veterans who are homeless or

at risk for homelessness. This NOFO will provide awards designed to address the

needs identified in 38 C.F.R. § 79.20, including legal services related to housing; family

law; income support; criminal defense; protective orders and other matters related to

domestic or intimate partner violence; access to health care; requests to upgrade military discharge or dismissal; consumer law, such as financial services, debt collection, garnishments, usury, fraud, and financial exploitation; employment law; and the top 10 unmet legal needs as enumerated on VA's annual Community

Homelessness Assessment, Local Education and Networking Groups (CHALENG) survey for the grant award cycle.
