Overview
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Readiness and Employment (VR&E) program (formerly known as Vocational Rehabilitation) is designed to help a service-disabled veteran overcome employment handicaps imposed by such disability so that the veteran is able to find and keep suitable employment as well as to achieve maximum independence in daily living. The primary goal of the program is to train disabled veterans for appropriate employment; although education benefits for school attendance may be authorized if it is determined to be the best way to prepare a particular veteran for entry or re-entry into the labor force. VR&E benefits must not be viewed as a supplement to or a substitute or replacement for VA education assistance benefits available under other programs.
