Strengthens and extends services that help service members move from military to civilian life by expanding and standardizing the Transition Assistance Program (TAP), lengthening transitional health care coverage from 180 to 270 days, launching a voluntary TAP pilot for military spouses, and requiring new reporting, audits, and tracking. It also directs a GAO study of SkillBridge, requires a public VA website to locate post-separation programs by ZIP code, and adjusts Veterans’ employment-assistance eligibility and Solid Start program references to TAP.
