Programs

Military Assistance Response Program

This program assists veterans or service members who are facing temporary financial hardships.  We assist in paying essential bills as a result of a military service-related incident.  Our goal is to improve the quality of life to create a foundation for long term stability.

Career Transition

This program provides individuals with tools and resources to better prepare them for the hiring process and refers qualified candidates to corporate organizations with open positions of employment specific to their skill sets.

Additionally, this program helps pay an individual’s essential expenses while they train for a new job or career.

Financial Education & Empowerment Program

As a part of the application process, USA Cares incorporated The Military Housing Financial Education & Empowerment Program to provide support to military families who are facing financial difficulty. Our hope is to arm military families with the tools they need to be prepared when the unexpected happens. 

Senior Leaders Corporate Fellowship Program

Fort Knox’s ACES, Fort Knox SFL-TAP, and USA Cares’ Career Transition Program invite you to take advantage of the Fort Knox Career Skills Program – Senior Leaders Corporate Fellowship! The program provides skills development training for those preparing for the transition from military service into the civilian workforce.
