Description
When a veteran returns home they often encounter difficulties in transitioning from a highly structured environment to situations that may involve complete chaos: families that are broken, homes that are coming apart, job loss and unemployment. For these and other reasons, many veterans end up living on the streets after serving our country.
Welcome Home Resumes, an Interactive Employment Program, was founded by Joseph Corsino after he encountered a group of such men who had become homeless. Having come from a family with a military service history, he was outraged by their plight and felt compelled to become involved and find a more effective way to assist the military veterans returning from active duty. After two years of researching the issue of veteran unemployment, he developed an interactive program that assists them in creating AND knowing their resume, training for job interviews, matching them with employment opportunities AND providing an on-going, continuous support system.
Be a part of this national effort and make a difference. Help the men and women of our military get their feet back on solid ground so they may stand with pride in the country they have served.
Together, We Can Do This!!
