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

This federal Project Grant award of $300,000 from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Health Administration (VHA) under the Legal Services for Veterans Grants program (CFDA 64.056) provides funding to Lsny-Bronx Corporation, doing business as Bronx Legal Services, to assist with the costs of delivering comprehensive legal services to eligible veterans and participants. The grant aims to address critical legal challenges that impede veterans' housing stability and access to essential services, including legal representation, advice, education, and advocacy across areas such as housing, family law, income support, criminal defense, and tax matters. As a non-profit legal services provider, Bronx Legal Services has also received funding from the IRS Low-Income Taxpayer Clinic (LITC) program and the Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women to expand its capacity to offer legal interventions to underserved and vulnerable populations, including low-income individuals, veterans, and domestic violence survivors.
