Where to Find Disability Grants in 2023

Individuals with disabilities face many types of hurdles. It comes as no surprise that many individuals with disabilities seek available resources to help assist with costs. Ongoing general living expenses and other costs of health-related care are financial challenges we want to help them overcome.

Benefits.gov, a free government website, helps Americans determine their potential eligibility for government-funded benefit and assistance programs. However, there is limited financial assistance. As a result, it is not uncommon to look for additional resources. GrantWatch.com is a subscription-based grant listing directory that can be a great place to find disability grants. Currently, more than 100 disability grants are available and accepting applications. Below is a list of potential grants that disabled individuals can apply for in 2023.

Where Else Can You Find Disability Grants?

Finding a grant may sometimes feel like ‘trying to find a needle in a haystack. However, you can explore other avenues that have proven to be very beneficial to those in need, including:

  • Contacting your local ministry
  • Creating a crowdfunding campaign
  • Reaching out to local nonprofit organizations
  • Dialing 211 on your phone for local assistance programs

Warning: If you did not apply for a grant, do not expect to receive one. Additionally, never pay money (or gift cards) in exchange for the promise to receive a grant. There is no fee to apply for a grant. Meanwhile, if you have received suspicious communication that does not fit these guidelines, we encourage you to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) Complaint Assistant
