Staff Sergeant Fox Suicide Prevention Grant Program Funding Opportunity

Description: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is announcing the availability of funds for new and renewing suicide prevention grants under the Staff Sergeant Fox Suicide Prevention Grant Program (SSG Fox SPGP) for services in Federal Fiscal Year (FY) 2027. The SSG Fox SPGP directs efforts to reduce Veteran suicide by awarding grants to community-based organizations to directly provide or coordinate the provision of primarily non-clinical suicide prevention services to eligible individuals and their families. Eligible individuals include certain Veterans and Active-Duty Service Members as defined by statute and regulations. Veteran suicide risk is reduced by services that improve mental health status, well-being, financial stability, and social support. Services provided by grantees may include case management, peer support, linkage to VA care and benefits, emergency clinical services, faith-based or innovative approaches. Most Veterans who die by suicide were not engaged with VA in the years prior to their deaths. This program addresses a critical gap by engaging and serving Veterans at risk for suicide who were previously out of VA’s reach and their family members. These grants support the President’s commitment to increase the excellence of and options for care, benefits, and services for veterans, as well as improve the delivery and quality of the Department's healthcare services in a more efficient and effective manner to support veterans, as demonstrated in Executive Order 14296 – Keeping Promises to Veterans and Establishing a National Center for Warrior Independence . This NOFO contains information concerning the SSG Fox SPGP, the grant application process, and the amount of funding available. For detailed program information and requirements, see 38 C.F.R. Part 78 .
