Due TODAY! Submit Your Comments on GPD Proposed Rule
Make your voice heard!
Last month the VA announced a new “proposed rule” in the Federal Register that would make several changes to the way the grant is administered. These changes would have impacts on how you run your program and how the VA measured your success. The proposed rule is a required step in any federal rule making, and it provides anyone with an opportunity to comment on the changes. This is your opportunity to tell VA how the changes would impact your work, and if they would be positive or negative for the veterans you serve.
Any and all comments must be submitted by Sept. 25 at midnight EST, so if you are planning on making a comment please do so soon. If you are not already planning on making a comment, please strongly consider it: this is our chance to make our voices heard now, before the changes go into effect.
