The New GI Bill, officially known as the Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008, is a United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) program that provides financial assistance to veterans and their dependents to help pay for college, graduate school, and other training programs.
The New GI Bill is an important benefit for veterans because it can help them get the education and training they need to succeed in the civilian workforce. The program has also been shown to have a positive impact on veterans’ mental and physical health, as well as their overall quality of life.
