The Military Spouse Career Advancement Account (CAA) project is a demonstration with a limited time duration. CAA helps military spouses get the training and education they need for careers that will persist during multiple relocations.  The Department of Labor (DOL) and Department of Defense (DoD) have co-sponsored this time-limited CAA demonstration for spouses of service members assigned to the following military installations: 
  • California: Camp Pendleton (Marine Corps); Naval Base San Diego Metro (Navy)
  • Colorado: Fort Carson (Army); Peterson AFB (Air Force)
  • Florida: Eglin AFB (Air Force); Hurlburt Field (Air Force); NAS Jacksonville (Navy)
  • Georgia: Fort Benning (Army)
  • North Carolina: Fort Bragg (Army); Pope AFB (Air Force)
  • Washington: McChord AFB (Air Force); Fort Lewis (Army); Naval Base Kitsap (Navy) 
Due to the outstanding success of the Career Advancement Accounts (CAA), we are no longer issuing CAAs at these locations:
  • Hawaii: Hickam AFB (Air Force); Kaneohe Bay (Marine Corps); Pearl Harbor (Navy); Schofield Barracks (Army)
  • Maine: NAS Brunswick (Navy)

If you are a military spouse and your service member is assigned to one of the above installations, click Eligibility and Application to learn more.
