Continue the Mission: Hiring Veterans, Serving the Public

As a Veteran or Transitioning Service Member, You are in the Best Position to Take Advantage Of the High Workforce Demand

We at TeamVetCV want to emphasize how much employers want to hire Veterans and how often they seek them out. That’s why we’re excited to tell you about Continue the Mission, a Florida initiative to actively recruit Veterans, military spouses, and former law enforcement officers to be Child Protective Investigators, case managers, and Mentors for the Florida Department of Children and Families. This partnership between the Department of Children and Families, The Florida Department of Veterans Affairs, and Florida First Lady Casey DeSantis will provide lucrative and flexible career opportunities to Veterans and former LEOs while allowing them to further serve their community and the public good by supporting families and children in need.

At the request of Florida State Rep. Michelle Salzman, VetCV CEO Niels Andersen was in attendance at the program’s launch event. “It’s an excellent opportunity,” Andersen said. “When I was a Navy corpsman, a lot of the toughest guys I knew had a huge soft spot for kids, especially kids needing help. Many Veterans struggle after separating, some of which feel that they’re lacking a purpose or direction. Sometimes, the best thing for someone struggling is to provide them with an opportunity to help someone else. Continue the Mission is a win for Florida’s children and families, but it’s also a huge win for Veteran employment and mental health.”

Continue to Mission is a great opportunity for members of the VetCV community looking for career opportunities and who want to do good things in their community. To learn more about the program, click below and keep an eye out for our updates.
