Episode notes

Veteran Employment Committee of San Diego County SDVec.org LinkedIn My name is Charlene Autolino and I’m the chair of the board of the Veterans Employment Committee of San Diego (VEC). The VEC is an all-volunteer organization comprised of: Veterans Active-duty military personnel California Employment Development Department (EDD) representatives Veteran organizations Employers Government agencies Community members We are dedicated to serving disadvantaged veterans and transitioning military members of all branches of service by helping remove barriers that may prevent them from obtaining life-sustaining employment. As we celebrate and acknowledge Veterans Day, there is an important question that must be asked: Do you hire veterans? The SDVEC membership is comprised of many governmental and non-governmental agencies. Visit the Affiliation page for details. Provide a “clearinghouse” for questions, complaints and recommendations concerning effectiveness of employment services available to veterans and eligible persons at the local level. Encourage employers from the public and private sectors to list job openings with local EDD offices and participate in employment programs.
