Homeward Bound Adirondack has received four consecutive annual Project Grant awards from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs' Veterans Health Administration under the Staff Sergeant Parker Gordon Fox Suicide Prevention Grant Program (CFDA 64.055), demonstrating sustained federal confidence in its programmatic capabilities. The organization's grant funding has totaled $3.75 million across four fiscal years, with individual annual awards of $750,000 for fiscal years 2024 through 2026, and an initial $1.5 million award in fiscal year 2023.

The grant-funded services are designed to connect at-risk veterans to VA resources and community support networks while addressing broader goals of improving mental health status, financial stability, and social support among the veteran population. All funding has been received directly as a prime grantee with no sub-contractor relationships noted in the award history.
