Scholarships. The NOVA Foundation provides scholarships to VA staff for nursing study in accredited baccalaureate and post-graduate programs. Such educational programs are vital to ensure a pool of qualified VA nurses to care for our aging veteran population and our newest generation of veterans injured or traumatized in recent conflicts.
|
|
Research Grants. No one has more contact with veterans than VA nurses -- and so VA nurses are particularly qualified to identify areas of VA health care to most benefit from research. The NOVA Foundation provides funding for projects that have scientific merit and are most likely to provide benefit to the greatest number of veterans. Recent grants have supported projects related to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), one of the most widespread, debilitating disorders affecting veterans returning from war.

|
Leadership and Advocacy. Inherent in the NOVA Foundation's mission is building awareness of the need to recruit, retain, and continuously train qualified VA nurses. To that end, the NOVA Foundation has been active on Capitol Hill and in other venues to help our nation understand the needs of VA nurses and the veterans they serve.
