Over 2 million soldiers have deployed during the Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) conflicts. While the majority of veterans reintegrate successfully following deployment, a sizable minority return and face difficulties transitioning into civilian life.

The primary objective of this project is to develop and evaluate an integrated community- and exercise-based program that can be "prescribed" to augment existing transition assistance programs.
