What happens next?

This year, NCDMVA is hosting the “Unlock the Veteran & MilSpouse Advantage for Your Business” roadshow to help businesses understand why and how to hire Veterans and Military Spouses. To continue the conversation, we have compiled a comprehensive list of resources your business can use to continue building strong and inclusive employment practices. North Carolina is consistently recognized as one of the best states for business, and we want to ensure our military and Veteran communities can both contribute to and benefit from that success. From non-governmental organizations to federal programs, there are many tools available to support your business in hiring and empowering these communities.
