Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would require the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to create a grant program for each state's main veterans agency to expand access to structured outdoor recreation programs for veterans. States could use the money to run programs, contract with local outfitters and nonprofits, cover costs like equipment, fees, and transportation, do outreach, and coordinate with federal land agencies. Each state agency with an approved application would get at least $200,000 per year, subject to available funding, and would have to report yearly on participation and veteran well-being. The bill authorizes $10,000,000 per year for the program.
