Information

*#*»»#»#»##»#»
Disabled veterans are entitled to
i many federal benefits not avail
able to the „non-disabled, accord
I ing to Veterans' Administration.
Some of these benefits ate ex
plained in the following replies to
the 10 questions most frequently
asked by disabled veterans during
a study VA conducted to learn
how much they know about the
federal program:
Q. What benefits does the dis
abled veteran receive under the
vocational rehabilitation program
that are not available to him un
der the GI bill?
A. The disabled veteran receives
several additional benefits under
the oVcational Rehabilitation act
(public law 16). During his vo
cational rehabilitation and fpr two
months after his employability has
been established, he receives at
least $105 if he has no depend
ents, or $115 if he has a dependent,
plus $10 for one child, $7 for each
additional child, ahd $15 for a de
pendent parent. He may receive
more than these guaranteed ,mini
rhums if his disability compensa
tion, pension or retirement pay,
plus the standard allowances of
$65 or $90 a month, is higher than
the amount guaranteed under the
act. Other advantages include
certain traveling expenses, other
than daily commutation* avail
ability of a $100 government loan;
extension of training entitlement
under certain conditions, and per
sonal guidance and attention by
VA traiing officers. Additional
deatils may be obtained at any
VA office.
Q. Does VA help the disabled
veteran get a job after he finishes
his training?
A. Yes.
Q. What is vocational advise
ment all about and why is it re
quired Under this program?
A. The main purpose of voca
tional advisement is to determine
whether a disabled veteran should
train for a profession, or fpr a
particular trade or occupation
based on his previous education,
experience, personal desires and
present ability. He is required to
take a series of aptitude tests at
a VA guidance center where he is
interviewed and counseled by a
group of hijjhly trained specialists.
His desires will be permitted to
govern in most cases, but the
counselors are required to advise
him against starting a course for
which his aptitudes or physical
limitations do not insure a reason
able likelihood of success. In
short, this advisement ip required
under the program to insure the
disabled veteran’s proper rehabil
itation.
Q. Will the disabled veteran s
disability compensation be re
duced if he goes into training un
der this program?
A. No.
Q. What happens if the disabled
veteran fails in his course under
this program?
A. Generally, VA will take spe
cial steps to enter him in another
course in which there is every
likelihood he will complete'suc
cessfully. ' The situation depends
on the facts and circumstances in
each case.
Q. What are the conditions for
eligibility under this program?
A. A disabled veteran must have
had active service on or after
Sept. 16, 1940, and before the of
ficial end of the war, with a dis
charge under conditions other than
dishonorable. He also must have
a compensable service-connected
disabiliy and he must §how a need
for vocational rehabilitation «to
overcome the handicap of his
disability.
Q. How much VA supervision
and assistance does the disabled
veteran get in his training?
A. VA training officers inform
and assist him in all matters af
fecting his training. They are
continually on the alert for cir
cumstances that might prevent his
proper progress and they exert
every effort to remove these ob
stacles.
Q. What is the maximum
length of training a disabled vet
eran can get under this program?
A. The maximum is four years;
however, VA may extend the time
if factors in any case warrant an
additional period for rehabilita
tion.
Q. What happens if a veteran
in training under this program be
comes ill or is injured?
A. Under certain conditions, if
the veteran is injured, suffers a
relapse, or if his disability is fur
ther aggravated during his train
ing, he may be granted an in
crease in the rate of his disability
compensation. If he requires hos
pitalization, it may be furnished
at government expense.
Q. Must a disabled veteran go
to a vocational school or may he
go to a liberal arts college, a high
school, or similar institution under
this program? -
A. He may enroll in any VA
approved educational institution
or training establishment offer
ing the course of training which
VA has found he needs to insure
his proper rehabilitation in line
with his own desires.
