Recognizing that transition from military service is not complete on the date of your discharge, the Virginia Transition Assistance Program (VTAP) is designed to provide transition resources and assistance to Veterans who now call Virginia home. 

Veterans can use the VA Welcome Kit as a guide to the benefits and services they earned.
