Grant funding available to nonprofit organizations, state and local governments, federally recognized tribes and other community-based organizations that have demonstrated capacity to serve veterans.
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs today announced a $112-million grant funding opportunity for organizations that provide suicide prevention services to veterans across the country.
Grant funding is available to nonprofit organizations, state and local governments, federally recognized tribes and other community-based organizations that have a demonstrated capacity to serve veterans. These funds are made available through the Staff Sergeant Parker Gordon Fox Suicide Prevention Grant Program, and grantees have until June 12, 2026, to apply.
“These grants invest directly in communities that know veterans best and are often the first to recognize when someone is struggling,” VA Secretary Doug Collins said. “They have been successful in connecting veterans, servicemembers and their families — especially those not yet engaged with VA — to services that help reduce suicide risk and promote well-being.”
