Use Your Military Background to Advance Your Career
June 19th, 2006To meet the needs of veterans, the Missouri Division of Workforce Development utilizes Disabled Veterans Outreach Program (DVOP) and Local Veterans Employment Representative (LVER) staff who are familiar with the full range of job development training programs and other services available for veterans at the Missouri Career Center.
Veterans specialists conduct outreach to employers and hiring executives to increase employment opportunities for veterans, encourage the hiring of disabled veterans, and generally assist veterans to gain and retain employment. They also provide additional services to meet the employment needs of disabled veterans and other eligible veterans, with the maximum emphasis directed toward those who are economically or educationally disadvantaged, including homeless veterans and veterans with barriers to employment.
