Over the past two decades, the number of veterans leaving service with an "other than honorable" (OTH) designation has been rising. These veterans have limited to no access to veterans benefits in the years following their service. The RAND Epstein Family Veterans Policy Research Institute convened a panel of experts to discuss what an OTH discharge means for veterans and their families and considerations for policy changes.
