2. 2013 U.S. Veteran Statistics

1.2 Million Veterans are unemployed.
Sources found from
Veterans Affairs website
and Department of
Labor. We believe
these numbers are very
low and actually there
are many more
unemployed Veterans.

4. Rural Veterans Need Virtual Access
Rural Veterans have access to virtual care but not
virtual jobs
“Rural Veterans have lower health-related
quality-of-life scores compared to urban
Veterans due to travel barriers including
greater distance to care and lack of public
transportation. To address these access
barriers, the VA has invested in a full
spectrum of telemedicine health care
technologies.”
