Rapid Retraining Assistance Program
Are you a veteran who lost your job due to the COVID-19 pandemic?
The Veteran Rapid Retraining Assistance Program was enacted as part of the American Rescue Plan and offers education and training for high-demand jobs to unemployed veterans due to the pandemic.
Eligible veterans participating in VRRAP receive up to 12 months of tuition and fees and a monthly housing allowance based on Post-9/11 GI Bill rates. You can find more information and apply for the program by visiting: https://www.va.gov/education/other-va-education-benefits/veteran-rapid-retraining-assistance/.
