The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs offers project grants. Through the Grants to States for Construction of State Home Facilities program, it assists any state in acquiring or building home facilities or nursing home care for veterans. Alterations, expansion of existing facilities or remodeling project funding and the provision of initial equipment for any of these buildings may be considered for a project grants. But, land acquisition costs are not covered. Ultimately, the buildings must be owned by the state and primarily service veterans.
