MVP Act
The MVP Act requires federal land management agencies to assess and improve accessibility at outdoor recreation facilities for military servicemembers and veterans. Within 5-7 years, agencies must conduct comprehensive assessments of trails and facilities, make accessibility information publicly available online, and develop at least 3 new accessible trails in each region of relevant agencies. The bill also establishes Military Veterans Outdoor Recreation Liaisons to coordinate implementation, mandates educational materials about accessible opportunities, and requires a national strategy to increase veteran visits to federal recreational lands. These provisions aim to improve physical accessibility and information availability for veterans seeking outdoor recreation opportunities on federal lands.
