I wish I knew more about the regional veteran benefits in MD. I know these two gentlemen might be able to offer some helpful direction: Joseph Wong LTC Jason Strickland.

It would be better to log onto the MD State Veterns site. Offerings very based on many factors such as, % of disability, residency, length of service etc. good luck and thank you for your service.

I will try and find more for you. The link below is for a program that's privately funded. You either have to be less than 180 days when the cohort you are applying for starts...or a spouse or veteran. Priority of funding is Active Duty, Spouse, and them Veteran. There are two versions. In person cohort and online only. The online only is larger but fills up sooner...based upon ETS/EAS.

Read it and contact the closest program coordinator. Heads up: The program is scheduled to start up this summer out of Arlington, VA for the DC area.

Hello Georgeann,
Here is a link of what I ran into years ago when I retired from the Army. I made sure I was ready for the transition even though I didn't give myself enough time. But I kept the link/website as reference because sometimes you just never know. I really hope this helps a little. And good luck!
