VDOT Wounded Veterans Internship Program
The program is an initiative to assist veterans with the transition from military to fulltime civilian employment. The program focuses on disabled veterans that have returned from Afghanistan and Iraq who are unable to return to a former job due to physical or emotional disabilities or because the position is no longer available. VDOT works with a number of veteran service organizations to implement the program, which attempts to locate internships near the participant's home and/or rehabilitation facility.
