There's a new program in Central TX to help veterans transition into civilian life.
The Department of Defense and Veteran affairs has partnered up to create a program that will assist those in the military as they make the transition. The ETS- Sponsorship program aka Expiration Term of Service was put into place to link soldiers with companies in their community to serve as a guide and support system as they navigate through the transition period.
Danielle Bracco, the Operations manager for the ETS Sponsorship Program told KWTX, " The program isn't meant to be a replacement for other assistance that the military offers. It's focus is to offer help in a wide range of areas such as employment, education, family needs as well as legal and social needs."
