See the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs WEB site on Chapter 32 benefits for details. The Vocational Rehabilitation and Counseling Program provides a comprehensive program of vocational rehabilitation assessment and services for veterans who have incurred or aggravated a physical or mental disability while in the armed forces of the United States. Veterans who have the potential to become employed are assisted in making viable occupational choices, and if necessary, are provided the skills needed to qualify for suitable employment. The Department of Veterans Affairs administers a number of educational benefit programs for eligible servicemembers, veterans, and dependents. As an integral part of these benefits, educational and vocational counseling is available to help the individual to choose a vocational direction or area of study and select a school or other facility which the person might attend to achieve the chosen goal.
Counseling is provided by qualified counselors and is offered at no charge.
