As a small child she played with the medals and badges that adorn her fathers uniform and played dress up with all the army gear left behind. Kyla bought her fist home with the VA benefits and understands firsthand how important it is for veterans to include and care for their families. She believes in hiring veterans and creating the stage for success through use of the proprietary tools provided in the program.

Transitioning Veteran

Transitioning Veteran.com is a free website created by me (Steve), after I experienced transitioning from military to the civilian world in 2003. It was created to help all military veterans and their families looking for simple information on benefits. It’s often difficult and time consuming to find the right information from various websites online concerning veteran’s benefits, so my goal was to create a centralized resource where it is readily available for the military community.

Common information that veterans often need pertain to education, medical, and employment benefits. Transitioningveteran.com also contains information to help All Past, Present, and Future veterans and dependents.
