    Simple Explanation

    The Postal Service is telling everyone about a big report they made showing how well they did last year and what they plan to do this year, and they want people to say what they think about it by March. They want to know if people think they did a good job, but they don't explain exactly what a "good job" looks like, making it a bit tricky.

    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.

    The Veterans Affairs Department wanted to help veterans with disabilities live better by giving money for cool new technologies in their homes, but the time to ask for this money has already passed.

    Simple Explanation

    The Rural Housing Service wants to give money to help people in the countryside build important places like schools and clinics.
