Overview
Text
Bill Intelligence

The bill establishes a grant program to expand access to outdoor recreation opportunities for veterans through structured programs focusing on wellness. These grants would be awarded to state entities to develop, administer, and expand outdoor programs for veterans, and could be used to reduce financial barriers to participation, conduct outreach, and collaborate with federal agencies. The Secretary of Veterans Affairs would encourage collaboration and coordination between state entities and federal agencies, while each state entity receiving a grant would be required to submit annual reports on participation metrics and program observations. The bill authorizes appropriations of $10,000,000 annually for this program.
