Since 2008, the Department of Veterans Affairs has provided funding to USABA through the Grants for Adaptive Sports Programs. The grant program serves disabled Veterans and Members of the Armed Forces (ASG Program) and aims to increase and expand the quantity and quality of adaptive sport activities disabled Veterans and members of the Armed Forces have to participate in physical activity within their home communities, as well as more advanced Paralympic and adaptive sport programs at the regional and national levels. Through grant funding from the Department of Veterans Affairs, USABA is able to provide opportunities across the nation for blinded military Veterans in cycling, running, rowing, skiing and goalball. Recently, USABA partnered with the Department of Veterans Affairs to launch the Competitive and Recreational Community Sports Integration Project where Military Veterans are reimbursed for registration and travel for competitive and recreational sporting events in their local and regional communities.
