Bill overview
This bill, the Daniel J. Harvey Jr. and Adam Lambert Improving Servicemember Transition Act, aims to reduce veteran suicide by establishing a five-year pilot program. The program will pair service members nearing the end of their military service with social workers and nurses to provide them with information about resources, potential challenges, and available support from the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Defense. It also mandates one-on-one meetings, medical record sharing, and assessments to ensure veterans have access to necessary care and support during their transition to civilian life.
