Is There Anyone Who Helps Veterans Find Work?

Yes. The Vermont Department of Labor has Local Veterans Employment Representatives (LVERs) at their Career Resource Centers to help veterans find work. They can also help with job training. If you’re a veteran looking for work, call the LVER closest to you. For a roster of LVERs with names and email addresses, visit the VT DOL Website.

What Programs Are Available to Help Disabled Veterans Find Work

The Vermont Department of Labor operates two programs that are especially useful for helping disabled veterans find work.

The DVOP works hand-in-hand with the LVER program listed above. The difference is that these employment representatives focus on helping disabled veterans.
