Download or read book You Deserve It written by Brian Reese and published by . This book was released on 2023-04-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You SERVED. You DESERVE. Brian Reese was good at masking his PTSD, bipolar disorder, depression, and anxiety. He even told himself he did not "deserve" benefits, which he later discovered was complete bullshit. As an air force officer deployed to Afghanistan, he embodied the motto of "service before self." Unfortunately, like many veterans, his service came at his own expense, and abusing alcohol and drugs to cope with mental health issues nearly ended his life. But by the grace of God and the power of pure vulnerability, Brian began a transformational journey of overcoming social stigmas and persevering through adversity. This journey has become a global movement of Veterans Helping Veterans Worldwide(TM). In You Deserve It, Brian provides veterans with a step-by-step blueprint to help them obtain virtually unknown federal and state benefits. With years of personal experience and more than ten thousand hours devoted to helping veterans get the benefits they're entitled to, Brian provides readers with the unparalleled insight and expertise that forms the foundation of his SEM Method. Whether you served thirty days or thirty years, this book will educate and inspire you to reap the rewards for your honorable service to our country.

Download or read book Transforming Service to Veterans written by Paul Lawrence and published by . This book was released on 2021-08-25 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can one person and an executive team make a difference in a large government bureaucracy? Can Veterans get the benefits they've earned without it being so difficult, frustrating, and slow? Can laws designed to help Veterans be implemented on-time? The answer to each question is "yes." In Transforming Service to Veterans, Paul Lawrence describes his accomplishments as the leader of the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA). VBA disburses $120 billion in annual benefits to Veterans. Historically, administering benefits has not met Veterans' expectations. Long wait times, ambiguity, and errors created the perception that nothing could be done to improve service to Veterans. This began to change in Spring 2018. Paul Lawrence was unanimously confirmed as Under Secretary for Benefits in April 2018, the only political appointee in VBA, overseeing 25,000 career employees. During Lawrence's nearly three years as Under Secretary, Veterans received more benefits faster and at a lower cost than at any time in VBA history. As a businessman, he implemented proven business practices, streamlined the bureaucracy, and created a public presence rebranding VBA as an organization successfully supporting Veterans. Transforming Service to Veterans presents Lawrence's journey from a business executive to political appointee charged with providing benefits to Veterans and implementing high-profile Veteran-focused legislation. He describes how he and his executive team assessed VBA's performance, identified problems and solutions, and determined an effective path forward. A key part of his work was hands-on management and a relentless focus on performance improvement. The critical challenges he encountered and overcame are described in detail, explaining what worked and why in these areas: Managing and improving performance - identifying and addressing challenges, providing transparency and accountability through quarterly public performance and results presentations, and aligning all activities to have VBA's #BestYearEver for Veterans. Managing people and stakeholders - building the leadership team, flattening the organization, developing talented civilian servants, and working with Veteran Service Organizations Managing during the Pandemic - understanding its effects on workflow and taking appropriate actions to keep serving Veterans, including conducting 110 telephone townhalls reaching more than 5 million Veterans to get them timely information and answer their questions Additional discussions include: Implementing congressional mandates - successfully implementing the Colmery Act (Forever GI Bill), Appeals Modernization, and the Blue Water Navy Act. Fixing the support functions - improving support from VA's Office of Information Technology and getting VBA's Office of Human Resources to provide world-class support Strengthening the organization - establishing the Chief Production Officer, applying proven techniques from the private sector, eliminating overpayments, and upgrading the call center. Innovations such as the development of new programs for Veterans and digital solutions are included. Lawrence concludes by presenting ideas to further improve VBA. Read this book: If you are a public sector manager and want proven insights into improving your organization's performance If you are a leader and want practical insights on developing a team of senior government executives To learn more about Veteran issues, including how benefits programs operate
Download or read book United States Code written by United States and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 1506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States of America. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second Session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First Session, enacted between January 2, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office"--Preface.

Download or read book The G I Bill written by Kathleen J. Frydl and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars have argued about U.S. state development - in particular its laggard social policy and weak institutional capacity - for generations. Neo-institutionalism has informed and enriched these debates, but, as yet, no scholar has reckoned with a very successful and sweeping social policy designed by the federal government: the Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944, more popularly known as the GI Bill. Kathleen J. Frydl addresses the GI Bill in the first study based on systematic and comprehensive use of the records of the Veterans Administration. Frydl's research situates the Bill squarely in debates about institutional development, social policy and citizenship, and political legitimacy. It demonstrates the multiple ways in which the GI Bill advanced federal power and social policy, and, at the very same time, limited its extent and its effects.
