Veteran Economic Opportunity Report (2015)
Category: Finances/Money/Economics
This report focuses on Veterans of the 9/11 era in comparison with Veterans of all other eras as well as the non-Veteran population. Veteran employment and earnings are generally comparable to the non-Veteran population, or even better among some
groups. Veterans are taking advantage of their GI Bill® education benefits to pursue higher education and certification programs and more Veterans participate in VA's loan guaranty program, helping them to purchase homes. However, in recent years about half of all Servicemembers transitioning into civilian life experienced unemployment within 15 months of separation.
