Jobs for Veterans State Grant Program

The Jobs for Veterans State Grant (JVSG) Program provides funding to states to enhance employment services for veterans. It helps connect veterans with job opportunities, training, and support to transition from military to civilian careers. The program funds specialized staff, called Veterans’ Employment Representatives and Disabled Veterans’ Outreach Program Specialists, who work directly with veterans to assess their skills, develop employment plans, and link them to suitable jobs. Overall, JVSG aims to improve employment outcomes for veterans by offering tailored assistance and resources through state workforce agencies.
