VA Awards Nearly $11 Million in Grants to Fight Veteran Homelessness in Wyoming

The Department of Veterans Affairs announced Thursday that a grant of nearly $11 million will help Veterans who are homeless or at-risk of becoming homeless in Wyoming. Volunteers of America Northern Rockies, received a $10.9 million grant that throughout fiscal year 2026, will fund the organization as they help Veterans access housing and housing counseling, healthcare, financial  planning services, childcare legal assistance, and transportation.

The grants are among $818 million in total funds VA is awarding nationwide through its Supportive Services for Veteran Families program, which provides case management and supportive services to prevent the imminent loss of a Veteran’s home, identify new, more suitable housing situations for individuals and families, and rapidly re-house Veterans and their families who are homeless and may remain homeless without assistance.

The VA awards grants based on several factors, including the grant recipients’ experience and past performance in providing supportive services to Veteran families, and the need in the area or community where the program will be based.
