VA is providing funding to assist with the costs to provide legal services to eligible veterans and participants

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration has awarded a $252,536 Project Grant under the Legal Services for Veterans Grants program (CFDA 64.056) to the Atlanta Law Center, Inc. to provide legal services to eligible veterans and participants who are experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness. The funding will support the Atlanta Law Center's delivery of comprehensive legal representation, advice, education, and advocacy across various civil and criminal matters such as housing, family law, income support, and criminal defense. This grant award is part of the VA's efforts to address critical legal challenges that impede veterans' housing stability and access to essential services, a key focus area identified in the department's CHALENG survey on unmet legal needs.
