    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is announcing the availability of funding for the Specially Adapted Housing Assistive Technology (SAHAT) Grant Program for 2021. This program aims to support the development of new technologies to help veterans and service members with disabilities live independently in adapted homes. Applicants can receive up to $200,000 for projects that focus on innovative assistive technologies, but they must submit their applications through the online portal, www.Grants.gov, by February 22, 2021. The program emphasizes technologies that address unmet needs and prioritize the independence of veterans, especially those that can be implemented quickly and effectively.
