The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the Virginia Department of Veterans

Services, Virginia Wounded Warrior Program and the Virginia Department of

Corrections have partnered to provide this guidebook to help you and your

family achieve your goals for a successful re-entry to your community. If you

are currently in a state prison, a healthcare for re-entry veterans (HCRV)

specialist is available to meet with you when you are within six months of a

projected release date. If you are in a local jail, a veterans justice outreach (VJO)

specialist is available to assist you in preparing for a successful reentry back in to

your community. Upon your release, the Virginia Wounded Warrior Program

coordinator in your region is an ideal resource that can help you connect to the

U. S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and other community services.

Upon your release, you may feel overwhelmed by the challenges you face.

However, the people, organizations, and contacts in this guidebook are here to

help you successfully transition back to your family and community.

Prior to your release, make sure your caseworker, counselor, or jail services

officer contacts either the re-entry specialist if you are in prison or the veterans

justice outreach specialist if you are in jail. This will ensure you are included in

these programs. Or, you may write to them at the addresses listed on page 8.

If you are incarcerated in a federal facility, have your caseworker contact the re-

entry specialist or write to the reentry specialist at the facility where you are

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

located. Give the re-entry specialist your projected release date and request the

specialist’s help in identifying resources and opportunities to help you return to

the community.

We want this to be a personable and respectful document to assist you during

your incarceration, planning for your release, and your return to the

community. Many have gone before you, successfully returning to their

communities with the help of many of the people and organizations in this

guidebook. Many people have confidence in your ability to succeed and are

willing to help you achieve your goals as a productive and law abiding member

of the community.

VA Benefits During Incarceration

here is a 60-day grace period following conviction where the veteran or recipient of

Dependents and Survivors Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) may still

receive full benefits. If the veteran continues to receive benefits after the 60-day period,

it will result in an overpayment. According to the VA, it is the recipient’s responsibility to

notify the VA of his or her incarceration. Attempts to obtain a waiver in these situations of

overpayment are often unsuccessful. As a rule, the veteran loses most, if not all, financial

benefits until the entire overpayment is recovered by the VA. It is also a standard procedure

that the family will not be entitled to receive an apportionment until the debt is completely

recovered.

REMEMBER, you must notify the VA when you are released to restart your payments. The

Virginia VA Regional Office is located at 210 Franklin Road, S.W., Roanoke, VA 24011. You may

contact the VA by calling 1-800-827-1000.

Family Benefits—Apportionment

Financial Payments to Your Family

Although a veteran can only receive a portion of the full amount payable for his or her

disability rating, the remaining balance may be divided among (apportioned) the individual’s

dependent family. To apply for apportionment, the dependent must send a letter to the VA

Regional Office that has jurisdiction over the veteran’s case. The dependent is the family

member who qualifies to receive the benefits, for example your spouse.

VA regulations clearly specify this apportionment amount will only go to family members if

they can show financial need. This applies to the spouse, children, or dependent parents who

are involved in the application. The VA will decide whether partial payment of benefits is

appropriate, the amount of benefits, and who will receive the payments. The VA will consider

the following factors:

• The family member’s income and living expenses;

• The amount of compensation available to be apportioned;

Section

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

• The needs and living expenses of other family members; and

• Special needs of any of the family members.

Help for Veterans

If you are in a state prison, the Healthcare for Re-entry Veterans (HCRV) program is an

excellent place to start planning for your release and re-entry to community life. If you are in a

local jail, the starting place is the Veterans Justice Outreach (VJO) program. Use the

information on this page to contact specialists for these programs.

The HCRV specialist will visit each correctional facility in Virginia to provide overview

information to interested veterans and meet individually with veterans prior to their release

dates. VJO specialists may not be able to meet with you individually but may be able to

provide assistance either by phone or in writing. The specialists will provide you with

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

individualized and respectful assistance to enhance your adjustment to the community and to

ensure your treatment needs are met.

Ask for help from your case worker, counselor, treatment program, jail services officer, or

other correctional staff to contact the HCVR specialist if you are in a state prison or the VJO

specialist if you are in a local jail.

The VA has programs, treatment, and services that may assist you. However, you may need to

be persistent and stay focused on the goals for you and your family. The following section lists

some of the benefits your military service may entitle you to.

About the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs

Additional information is available at http://www.gibill.va.gov or you can call

1-888-GIBILL1.

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

• Benefits: The school will report a veteran’s status as incarcerated on the

certification and note whether the federal, state, or local government is paying all or

part of the cost for tuition, fees, books, equipment, or supplies and the amounts

paid.

• Time Limits: Benefits are available for up to 15 years from the last period of active

duty of at least 90 consecutive days. This also applies if released for a service-

connected disability after at least 30 days of continuous service.

Home Loans

The VA offers a number of home loan services to eligible veterans, some military

personnel, and certain surviving spouses.

• Guaranteed Loans: The VA can guarantee part of a loan from a private lender to

help you buy a home, a manufactured home, a lot for a manufactured home, or

certain types of condominiums. VA also guarantees loans for building, repairing,

and improving homes. More information is available at

http://www.benefits.va.gov/homeloans/.

• Refinancing Loans: If you have a VA mortgage, the VA can help you refinance

your loan at a lower interest rate. You may also refinance a non-VA loan.

• Special Grants: Certain disabled veterans and military personnel can receive

grants to adapt or acquire housing suitable for their needs.

• Time Limits: There is no time limit for a VA home loan.

Life Insurance

• Servicemembers’ Group Life Insurance (SGLI) is low-cost term life insurance

for service members and reservists. Coverage of up to $400,000 begins when you

enter the service. Generally, it expires 120 days after you leave the service.

Traumatic SGLI is automatically included in SGLI and provides for payment up to

$100,000 for service members who lose limbs or incur other serious injuries.

• Veterans Group Life Insurance (VGLI) is renewable term life insurance for

veterans who want to convert their SGLI up to an amount not to exceed the

coverage you had when you separated from service. You must apply within one

year and 120 days from separation.

• Service-Disabled Veterans Insurance, also called RH insurance, is for service-

connected disabled veterans. Coverage is $10,000. You may be eligible for a $20,000

supplemental policy if you are totally disabled. You must apply for RH within two

years of being rated service-connected by the VA.

Dependents and Survivors Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC)

DIC is payable to certain survivors of:

• Service members who died on active duty

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

• Veterans who died from service-related disabilities

• Certain veterans who were being paid 100% VA disability compensation at the time

of death.

• Death Pension is payable to some surviving spouses and children of deceased

wartime veterans. The benefit is based on financial need.

• Parents’ DIC is payable to some surviving parents. The benefit is based on financial

need.

Applying for Benefits

To complete the claims process, you will need your DD214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge

from Active Duty). To obtain a copy of your DD214, you may contact a Virginia Department of

Veterans Services benefit services office for assistance with submitting Form SF-180. You may

download a copy of the SF-180 from http://www.archives.gov/veterans or you may request a

copy by calling 1-866-272-6272. Visit http://www.VirginiaforVeterans.com to find a DVS office

near you. DVS mailing addresses are located in Section 3: Resources.

The information required for the enrollment process and determination of eligibility for a

disability rating may seem overwhelming. However, an HCRV or VJO program specialist

will help you complete the enrollment documents and submit them on your behalf. The

HCRV/VJO specialist will make sure all details are included. The specialist will also be

able to monitor your status and inform you accordingly.

The enrollment document (1010EZ) will determine your eligibility for VA healthcare

benefits. Eligibility is determined by the character of your discharge from the military, the

length of time you were on active duty, and the presence of a service-connected disability.

The HCRV/VJO specialist will discuss eligibility with you when you meet and help you

complete form 1010EZ. The outcome of your request for enrollment will provide you

with facts concerning your eligibility for VA benefits. There are contacts at each VA

medical center and you will receive that information when you meet with the

HCRV/VJO.

The HCRV/VJO specialist will provide you with contact information for the VA medical

center nearest you. This person will be available to assist you in navigating the VA

healthcare system. In many cases the contact person will be the homeless coordinator or

someone in that program. Refer to the list of VA medical centers in Virginia in Section 3:

Resources.

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

Following Up on Your Claim

You will receive a confirmation letter from the VA advising you of the status of your

eligibility for benefits. This correspondence will be mailed to the address identified when

you meet with the HCRV/VJO specialist. You will be determined as eligible, ineligible, or

unable to determine as eligible. If you disagree with the determination, you may appeal

the decision and submit documents in support of your claim.

Be sure to obtain a copy of your DD214 since this is an important document to submit if

your eligibility is denied or more information is needed to confirm your eligibility for VA

healthcare. Keep the original for your records and submit only a copy of your DD214.

If your eligibility is confirmed or if you want to contest the preliminary eligibility

determination, visit the VA medical center of your choice to register for care. Make an

appointment to meet with the contact person at the VA medical center so he or she can

assist you with the registration process.

You will need a picture identification in order to register for healthcare (the picture

identification provided by the prison is adequate for registration purposes).

You will be asked to update your information. At the time of registration you may

schedule an appointment for primary care. You will also be photographed for a VA

identification card.

Make sure you receive an appointment with a primary care physician in a timely manner if

you are prescribed medications. Typically the prison or jail will provide you with at least a

30 day supply of medication. In most cases you may be able to see a VA physician within

30 days. In case of an emergency, you may be seen in the emergency department at the VA

medical center.

Your primary care physician is an essential contact. You may request specialized services

such as mental health, substance use, and other assistance from this physician.

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

Getting Started

Virginia Community Re-entry Initiative

The Virginia Community Re-entry Initiative (VCRI) is a community-based re-entry

approach that is voluntarily implemented by a number of Virginia localities. Like other

resources in this manual, these organizations are committed to helping you successfully re-

enter community life. Participating localities establish a local re-entry council that

coordinates local resources to reduce recidivism, maximize opportunities for former

offenders to successfully return to the community, and to support family and community

reintegration. The re-entry council can serve as referral points for your pre-release

planning. The re-entry councils are listed in Section 3: Resources.

Virginia Department of Veterans Services (DVS)

DVS operates 22 benefit services offices where representatives help veterans and their

family members file claims for federal and state veterans benefits. The Virginia Wounded

Warrior Program coordinates support and services for veterans and their families affected

by stress-related injuries, such as post traumatic stress and traumatic brain injuries. The

agency also certifies that post-secondary educational institutions meet G.I. Bill funding and

eligibility requirements, enabling veterans and family members to pursue educational

opportunities.

DVS operates two veterans long-term care facilities. The Virginia Veterans Care Center in

Roanoke is a 240-bed facility offering skilled nursing, domiciliary, and Alzheimer’s/dementia

care for veterans. The 160-bed Sitter & Barfoot Veterans Care Center is located in Richmond

and provides skilled nursing and Alzheimer’s/dementia care.

The agency operates three veterans cemeteries: the Virginia Veterans Cemetery in Amelia, the

Albert G. Horton, Jr. Memorial Veterans Cemetery in Suffolk, and the Southwest Virginia

Veterans Cemetery in Dublin.

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

Virginia Wounded Warrior Program

In response to the growing need to improve and expand services to our nation’s veterans

and service members, the Commonwealth of Virginia established the Virginia Wounded

Warrior Program (VWWP) in 2008. It is operated by the Virginia Department of Veterans

Services in cooperation with the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental

Services and the Department of Rehabilitative Services.

The VWWP supports the following persons on their road to recovery from the effects of

stress-related injuries, such as post traumatic stress disorder, or traumatic brain injuries:

• Veterans of any era who are Virginia residents

• Members of the Virginia National Guard not in active federal service

• Virginia residents in the Armed Forces Reserves not in active federal service

• Family members of veterans and members of Guard and Reserve not in active

federal service

Regional coalitions of community services boards, brain injury services providers and other

public and private service providers are offering services across the Commonwealth. These

coalitions enhance the existing array of services in their communities based on an ongoing

assessment of local needs. Following are examples of the services that may be available

through these networks of public and private providers:

• Comprehensive and timely assessment

• Rehabilitative services

• Care coordination

• Peer and family support

• Outpatient treatment

• Linkage to benefits, housing, employment and educational programs

VWWP regional directors and regional coordinators will be able to assist you as your

reenter community life. They can be an important local contact for obtaining healthcare,

behavioral healthcare, or other community supports.

To reach your regional office for further information or assistance, call the toll free

number at 1-877-285-1299 or the central office at 804-371-4675.

The VWWP regional directors and regional coordinators are listed in Section 3: Resources.

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

Healthcare

Every VA medical center has a healthcare for homeless veterans (HCHV) coordinator who

is responsible for helping homeless veterans access VA and community-based care to end

homelessness among veterans. The HCHV program provides outreach, clinical assessments

and referrals for medical and mental healthcare, long-term transitional residential

assistance, case management, and employment assistance with linkage to permanent

housing.

HCHV is an outreach program that sees homeless veterans at VA medical centers in

Richmond, Hampton, and Salem. The goal of this program is to provide medical care to

homeless veterans while allowing them to access substance abuse and/or mental health

treatment.

Some VA medical centers have Drop in Group Medical Appointment Clinics (DIGMA). In

Virginia DIGMAs are located in Richmond and Hampton. This program allows homeless

veterans to enroll in and receive continuing medical treatment. In Hampton the clinic

meets on Tuesday afternoon and in Richmond it meets daily. Any homeless veteran who is

eligible for VA services can attend except those requiring narcotic medications. Mental

health screening is also available for those attending the clinic.

The coordinator for the homeless program at each medical center is a valuable resource for

information and referrals to housing programs. Resources vary from location to location

and the homeless programs have specific information regarding resources in their

respective areas.

Make sure you contact the homeless coordinator at the VA medical center where you

receive care if you need housing assistance.

Some veterans may have an immediate need for housing as part of their home plan. Most

programs in Virginia will not admit veterans directly from prison or jail. The exception is

the Salvation Army Veterans Transitional Housing Program in Hampton (see Section 3:

Resources). This program requires an interview which may be conducted by phone. The

HCRV/VJO specialist can arrange for this interview after meeting with you. You

caseworker or jail services officer may provide you with telephone access to facilitate the

interview.

This section includes ways to locate emergency shelter, transitional programs, and

permanent housing assistance. Transitional or temporary housing can serve as a step

toward full independence upon your release. However, there are often waiting lists for

housing assistance programs, so you should ask about applying as soon as possible. If you

are released and find yourself homeless, emergency assistance is available by calling 1-877-

4AID-VET (1-877-424-3838) or at http://www.va.gov/HOMELESS/NationalCenter.asp.

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous

Check the phonebook for a local number or visit http://www.aa.org or

http://www.na.org.

Employment

Employment is one of the biggest barriers between you and successful re-entry. Don't wait

until you get out to start thinking about employment. Start planning now! Ask for job

counseling and training while incarcerated so you are prepared to work when released.

Obtain and keep copies of any education, training, or trade certifications you may have

from your work or training while you are incarcerated. These could make a difference in

getting hired. You also may be able to obtain references relevant to your employment.

Virginia

Employment

Commission

and numbers can be found in the telephone book under Sate Government

listings (blue pages). Ask to speak with the veterans representative. There

may be a VEC representative who has hours in the medical center where

you receive care.

Virginia Workforce Networ

This service provides access to a wide range of employment and training

services through Virginia Workforce Centers. The veterans representatives

(DVOPs and LVERs) are stationed in VEC Workforce Centers. The best

way to find employment, whether part time or full time, is to visit the

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

Virginia also has a Vocational Rehabilitation Program. Look in

the phone book under Virginia Department of Rehabilitative Services or at

http://www.vadrs.org.

U.S. Dept.

of Veterans

Affairs

Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment

This program helps veterans with service-connected disabilities by

providing job training and counseling to those who have an employment

handicap. Services include help finding a job, on-the-job training, job

development, and vocational training. If you are not eligible for these

services, a VA counselor may help you find other options, goals, or

programs. Contact your VA Regional Office (VARO) at 1-800-827-1000.

Veterans Industries and Compensated Work Therapy Programs

The VA offers structured work opportunities and supervised therapeutic

housing for at-risk and homeless veterans with physical, mental health, and

addiction problems. The VA contracts with private industry and the public

sector for work by these veterans, who learn job skills, re-learn successful

work habits, and regain a sense of self-esteem. Veterans are paid for their

work and given assistance with employment in the community. Virginia

currently has veterans industries programs located at the VA medical

centers in Richmond, Salem, and Hampton.

Financial Assistance

The American Legion provides Temporary Financial Assistance (TFA) from its

national headquarters to help maintain a stable environment for children of veterans. To

obtain an application, look in the phone book for a local post or contact the national

headquarters to find the post nearest you.

If you are unemployed with little or no income, you may be able to get food stamps. A

person may qualify for $85 to $200 worth of food stamps per month. Call the toll free

information number at 1-800-221-5689 or find a list of food stamp hotlines for each state at:

VETERANS RE-ENTRY ROADMAP

www.fns.usda.gov/fsp/contact_info/ hotlines.htm. You can also contact the local

Department of Social Services, drop-in shelters, or legal aid services to ask for an

application.

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits can be applied for before your release,

even though you won't receive the benefits until after your release. Food stamps can be

applied for together with SSI. Normally, it takes about three months to review an

application; so, apply well before your release date. It is best to get help filling out the

application. For detailed information or assistance, call 1-800-772-1213 or call or your local

social security administration office listed in the phone book blue pages. You also can go

to http://www.socialsecurity.gov/ssi/index.htm.

Other programs may be available in your area. Check the community services section of

your phonebook. Look for listings such as the American Red Cross, Catholic Charities or

Catholic Social Services, the Salvation Army, United Way, 2-1-1, and other non-profit

providers.

Legal Assistance

Legal issues:

Most law is state-specific. Most common legal problems are governed by the law in the

state where you live or where the problem occurred. When looking for legal help, make

sure the information you find applies to your state or that the lawyer or other service

provider is qualified to work in your state.

The American Bar Association has a web site with guidelines about free legal services

and links to directories of legal aid offices and pro-bono programs. Go to www.abanet.org.
