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

This federal Project Grant award of $150,000 from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Health Administration is being provided to Nevada Legal Services, Inc., a non-profit legal aid organization, to assist with the costs of delivering legal services to eligible veterans and participants experiencing or at risk of homelessness. The funding supports Nevada Legal Services, Inc. in providing legal representation, advice, education, advocacy, and assistance across various civil and criminal matters related to housing, family law, income support, criminal defense, and other issues impacting veterans' fundamental rights and access to critical services. This award is part of the VA's Legal Services for Veterans Grants program (CFDA 64.056), which aims to address unmet legal needs that can create barriers to housing stability for this vulnerable population.
