Description

The federal government has long offered programs that assist veterans with finding employment. In 2013, the Dignified Burial and Other Veteransäó» Benefits Improvement Act of 2012 required the Department of Labor (DOL) to provide employment workshops to veterans and their spouses at locations other than military facilities through a 2-year pilot that ended in January 2015. In response, DOL used the same 3-day employment workshops for the pilot that it provides to servicemembers on military bases as part of the Transition Assistance Program (TAP). This report addresses: (1) how DOL implemented the pilot; (2) what state officials reported regarding the benefits and challenges of the pilot; and (3) how the pilot informs decisions about its possible expansion. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.
