This grant program, offered by the Department of Veterans Affairs, is specifically designed for new recipients seeking funding for the transportation of veterans residing in highly rural areas. The initiative, part of the fiscal year 2023 funding cycle, aims to support efforts to improve access to essential transportation services for this specific demographic. Approximately $4.0 million has been authorized for appropriation to facilitate these critical transportation projects. It is crucial to note that eligibility for this Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) is strictly limited to organizations or entities that are new to receiving Highly Rural Transportation Grants (HRTG) and have not been previous recipients of this particular funding. The program underscores a commitment to addressing the unique transportation challenges faced by veterans in remote locations.
