Veterans Transition Support Act of 2025

United States119th CongressHR-5930House of Representatives
Updated: Nov 17, 2025

Summary

This legislation aims to significantly enhance the Department of Veterans Affairs' Solid Start program by extending its reach to servicemembers before their separation from the Armed Forces. It mandates that the VA coordinate efforts with the Department of Defense to assist these transitioning individuals, prioritizing outreach to those between 120 and 210 days prior to their separation. Key new provisions include collecting Department of Defense suicide prevention policies and contacts to inform servicemembers in crisis about available resources. The bill also requires the VA to make at least one phone call to each transitioning servicemember, regardless of separation type, between 210 and 120 days before their separation. During this crucial call, servicemembers must be informed about transitional healthcare options and provided with contact information for their nearest VA facility and a recognized representative for disability compensation claims. Additionally, the program may use text messages or email to schedule calls or establish contact if phone calls are unsuccessful, ensuring comprehensive outreach.
