Heroes surpasses 4,000 employer pledges
More than 4,000 Missouri employers have officially
taken the Show-Me Heroes pledge, signifying outstanding support for veterans in
Missouri.
 The Show-Me Heroes program, launched by

opportunities when they return home from service. Administered by the Missouri
Division of Workforce Development in partnership with the Missouri National
Guard, Show-Me Heroes showcases Missouri businesses that appreciate
the value that military experience can bring to the workplace. Employers participating in the Show-Me
Heroes program sign a pledge to ramp up efforts to reach out to, recruit and
interview veterans for job openings at their business.
To date, 4,039 Missouri employers have taken the Show-Me Heroes pledge, and 6,836 veterans have been hired!
