Those with disabilities can seek a federal grant for assistance. Grants.gov maintains a database of federal grants and is a useful tool to aid in your search. Users must first register with the site before they can search for disability-related grants.
Applications for private grants generally are less onerous to complete, in terms of forms and stipulations, than federal grants. However, they may also be less generous in terms of the amount of aid that is given.
Persons seeking grants for the disabled can take advantage of other excellent resources, such as the Foundation Center. This organization maintains a list of such grants that are available for both individuals and nonprofit organizations.
