Transition Assistance Information for Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom Veterans

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has maintained an active Transition Assistance Program and Disabled Transition Assistance Program (TAP/DTAP) throughout the United States and around the world. Since the implementation of TAP/DTAP through the original legislation (P.L. 101-237) and the legislation which expanded TAP/DTAP (P.L. 101-510) VA has provided benefit information to separating service members and their families.

VA encourages all separating service members to contact their respective Transition Centers to determine when the VA Transition Assistance Briefings are scheduled. These briefings provide information which will help you make the transition to civilian life easier by identifying many of the VA benefits available to you. You may find the locations of the briefing sites through the Department of Defense transition portal web site. When the site comes up, click on the "At Your Service" link. Click on the Military Services Transition Assistance Locations link to locate the center nearest you.
