    DD FORM 214 -- SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFIT Please share this with anyone who's had 
    active duty service between January 1957 to December 31, 2001 and planning for 
    retirement. You qualify for a higher social security payment because of your

    Military service, for active duty any time from 1957 through 2001 (the program 
    was done away with 1 January 2002). Up to $1200 per year of earnings credit 
    credited at time of application - which can make a substantial difference in

    social security monthly payments upon your retirement. You must bring your
    DD-214 to the Social Security Office and you must ask for this benefit to 
    receive it! Soc Sec website: http://www.ssa.gov/retire2/military.htm

    This is something to put in your files for when you apply for Social Security 
    down the road.. It is NOT just for retirees, BUT anyone who has served on active 
    duty between January 1957 to December 31, 2001. FYI - this benefit is

    not automatic, you must ask for it!

    Very Respectfully,

    MC1(SW/AW) Andre Mitchell

DOD Welcome home-small.jpg A welcoming home for our Troops.

Welcoming home our men and women doesn't end after the crowd disperses, it MUST continue on for the life of the Veteran! They've served us, now we will serve them with programs that work so they reintegrate into society.

We are a national public benefit nonprofit organization that educates American Communities about best practices to serve Veterans.  We honor their service by empowering Veterans to apply their training and skills to successfully transition to productive careers and enterprises.

The SWVBRC enlists the support of members of local Communities like you to increase Veteran awareness of the value of obtaining a VA card and receiving earned benefits.

Sponsorships, donations, volunteers and support from communities like yours enable us to reach out to Veterans and empower them to transition back into successful, productive enterprises that ultimately benefit all Americans and support future generations.
