U.S. Department of Transportation Announcing Launch of Month-Long National Dialogue to Improve Transportation for Veterans, Military Families

Both the grant program and the national dialogue were developed cooperatively through the Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility, a federal inter-agency partnership established in 2004 and currently chaired by Secretary LaHood. In addition to the U.S. Department of Transportation, the veterans’ initiatives are supported by the departments of Labor, Veterans Affairs, and Health and Human Services (all Coordinating Council members), with additional support from the Department of Defense and leading veteran and military service organizations around the country.
