Find Support for Disabled Veterans.
Over 10 percent of VA employees are Veterans with disabilities. VA works hard to quickly identify and address any barriers to ensure equal employment and opportunities for Veterans. Veterans with service-connected disabilities can find resources like vocational counseling, evaluation and rehabilitation services, independent living opportunities and job training through the Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (VR&E) program.
