VA Awards Grants for Adaptive Sports Programs in Georgia
Tuesday, October 20th, 2026
The Department of Veterans Affairs awarded $667,791 in grants to community-based organizations in Georgia that provide adaptive sports programs.
This funding is part of $16 million in grants awarded to 91 organizations nationwide to advance adapted sports programs for Veterans and active-duty service members.
Adaptive sports programs give Veterans opportunities to build independence, well-being, and quality of life through a variety of competitive and recreational activities. These activities, such as archery, skiing, cycling, wheelchair softball, hunting, fishing, and many others, enable Veterans to rehabilitate through recreation and encourage an active and healthy lifestyle.
Since the establishment of the Adaptive Sports Grant Program, VA has awarded over $150 million to expand access to adaptive sports nationwide.
