With their military transition
Your Career Transition Starts Here!
Military to Civilian Life
Transitioning to civilian life is a journey, not a destination. Along the way, veterans may face challenges in their career, health, and community. However, veterans can find support in building community, furthering their education, and enhancing their well-being.
These resources can ease the transition to civilian life, as Team Before Self demonstrates. On this site, we outline some valuable strategies for a successful civilian adjustment.

Building A Community
Loved ones are a vital support system for veterans because they understand the unique experiences of military service and provide a sense of community. Reconnecting with family and friends is crucial for veterans' emotional well-being and successful reintegration into civilian life. Community encouragement, guidance, and acceptance can ease veterans' feelings of isolation.
Education and Career
Mental Health and Well-Being
Regardless of how much preparation is involved, adjusting to life after the military can be stressful. Veterans exiting service should have foreknowledge of potential challenges, adjust at their own pace, and seek professional support if necessary.
Prioritizing self-care through exercise, healthy eating, and relaxation techniques can ease the transition. Establishing a daily routine that incorporates such strategies can create structure and focus in a Veteran’s life.
And nobody has to struggle alone: mental health professionals, Veteran support groups, and the Veteran crisis hotline are always available.
Unique needs and Experiences
Serving our country is the most noble responsibility an American citizen can take on. Yet the transition from active service to civilian life often puts Veterans at risk for unemployment, mental health struggles, and even homelessness. Although Veterans’ charities work tirelessly to support former service members and their families, they can only do so much.
Each service member has unique needs and experiences. TBS can tailor support and resources to meet their Veterans’ specific situation and goals, as well as encourage them to continue leaning on support systems throughout their reintegration into civilian life.
