ForwardHeroes

ForwardHeroes is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing contemporary, proven career and personal development training that enables US Veterans to transition successfully into the 21st century workforce. Our vision for ForwardHeroes is focused on catalyzing improvements in the lives of veterans, their families and their employers. In addition, the principals of ForwardHeroes – like many of us – envision veterans as substantial contributors to the enhancement of American society and the economy. Despite that vision, significant numbers of US veterans transitioning into the civilian workforce experience difficulty finding jobs, dealing with healthcare problems and coping with the resulting stress placed on their families. The totality of existing programs designed to enable our veterans to succeed in their transition to the civilian workforce (non-governmental, government-sponsored, and government run) have not sufficed thus far – and are unlikely to meet current and future needs. ForwardHeroes is a non-profit collaborative effort to help these veterans help themselves and to develop pathways to success. ForwardHeroes will help veterans as individuals, and as members of families and communities, integrate and benefit from training programs, new self- and mutual-help techniques, mentorship from contemporary career experts, and in obtaining industry credentialing and certifications. We are a 501(c)(3), non-profit organization under the auspices of ifest.org
