VA awards transportation funds to ND

By MDN STAFF 1 min read

The Department of Veterans Affairs has awarded $710,550 in grants to the North Dakota Department of Veterans Affairs to support local veterans with transportation needs.

The Highly Rural Transportation Grants (HRTG) program helps veterans living in highly rural areas with free transportation to VA and VA‑authorized health care facilities. The HRTG program provides funding to Veteran Service Organizations and State Veterans Service Agencies that serve counties with fewer than seven people per square mile. This year, VA awarded more than $6.1 million in grants through HRTG.

Veterans in highly rural areas can visit the VA website to locate resources in their area.

Starting at /week.
