Vocational Rehab

Veteran

Marco Green Gadsden , AL

I was curious how to use my VOC rehab benefits to start my own business. I just recently received my medical retirement from DOD and I would like to know how to use the VOC rehabilitation benefits to seek self employment? If anyone could help me with this it would be so helpful. I live in Alabama.

Marco, I just graduated from the family version of this program and I highly recommend it if you want to start a business. Check out EBV at http://whitman.syr.edu/ebv/. I learned so much over 9 days that will help me start my business and become successful.

Using the VRE Self-Employment Program requires developing a strategy which will prove the feasibiltiy of your business plan to your counselor and other capital sources. You should should consider obtaining a consultant to guide you through the process. Go to Veteranscorp.org to request a consultation.
