Question

Is there a program to help pay for a bathroom remodel to help shower yourself due to limitations of my current P and T disability? I just want to get my shower redone tired of falling in my stand up shower.

There are a number of grant programs that can be used to help:

There are two programs available one is for veterans that have been granted r special adaptive housing grant ( which is based on disability alone)

The other is HISA which all veterans are eligible for but pays more if the veteran has a service connected condition.

see the attached files below for more information

You might also be able to get something from the Vocational Rehabilitation Independent Living Program.. but its a lot harder and takes a lot more time... to get anything approved under the ILP

If I had listened to the nay sayers, I would never have acheived any ratings after I was awarded TDIU in 1999. Now I have not one but two 100% ratings, a TDIU  and 4 SMC awards !  I say JUST GO For It
