Spinal Cord Injury Grants

Handicap van grants have been created specifically for people who have a spinal cord injury to receive help funding the purchase of a wheelchair accessible van or other mobility equipment. And to further help, accessibility vehicle grants for spinal cord injuries can be combined with an unlimited amount of other mobility funding resources when purchasing a wheelchair van from AMS Vans. After financial arrangements have been confirmed with your chosen foundation(s) and/or bank, AMS Vans will gladly contact them and finalize payment for you.

Please Note: For answers to specific grant questions, contact the individual grant foundation. AMS Vans provides the Wheelchair Van Grant Directory as a complimentary service to assist as many people as we can, but we do not have more specific grant information than what is described here. Please contact the individual handicap van grant providers for complete assistance. To learn more about how to apply for wheelchair van grant funding to buy a handicap van or convert a pre-owned minivan, view "How to Apply for a Grant for Wheelchair Vans, Mobility Equipment, or Minivan Conversions."
