Run by veterans, for veterans, Michigan's Veterans' Employment Services helps veterans, transitioning service members and their families translate military experience into meaningful, good-paying civilian careers.
The transition from military to civilian life can bring challenges, such as navigating an unfamiliar job market, finding employers who understand military skill sets, or simply rebuilding a sense of purpose outside of uniform.
That’s where VES steps in, offering one-on-one guidance from people who understand the uncertainty that can come with change. In 2024, VES provided more than 6,500 veterans and their spouses with employment and training support.
Learn how they can help you or a loved one at Michigan.gov/VES.
