West Virginia is creating a website to help veterans get back into the routine of things after they return home from military service.
The website provides links to services for employment, health care, training and education, benefits and family resources.
The online resource is the product of a partnership among several state and federal agencies, including WorkForce West Virginia, the U.S. Department of Labor and the West Virginia National Guard.
Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin is scheduled to announce the new service for veterans on Wednesday in the Capitol.
Here is the web-site address: http://www.wvmilitaryconnection.org
