VA Announces Extension of Funding for GPD Programs


VA Announces Extension of Funding to GPD Programs
One year extension for programs not funded under NOFA 
Last Friday, VA Secretary Shulkin announced that organizations that applied for Grant and Per Diem funding for FY 2018, but were “found ineligible due to new program guidelines” will receive a one year extension of funding. This funding extension is designed to keep programs operating through the fiscal year, and give them the opportunity to apply under a new, upcoming, NOFA.
Little information beyond what has been announced through a VA Press Release is available. The specifics of the extension will be shared with organizations through letters sent from the VA, and will include the scores of the organizations’ applications.
