New Pilot Program - "Mobile Assistance Teams"

15 June 2010 - Middletown, CT - The Connecticut Veterans Organization Announced today that they will begin to form Mobile Assistance Teams, leas by the Assistance Officer and helped by the President, Community Officer and Volunteer Officer. These teams would set up at various locations throughout the state to help veterans on the spot with resume writing skills & Critiquing, interview skills, helping veterans find a job, get benefits information, electric rate discounts and more.
The Connecticut Veterans Organization will initially set up Six Locations throughout the summer, and if all works as planned, will try to increase funding to add more services to our Mobile Assistance Teams and make this a permanent addition to the organization. Each team will need to have a minimum of two trained volunteers at each event, with at least one being an officer. The target date for the six drives are from July 3, 2010 and September 5, 2010. A final report of how the teams helped our veterans will be made at the September Members Meeting.

The Connecticut Veterans Organization is a non-profit organization who helps veterans find jobs, housing and get the benefits that they deserve. If you know some one who can use our assistance or who would like to volunteer, please contact welcome@ ctvo.org or call 877-6-CTVETS.
