Through the Veterans Services Program, Goodwill Manasota helps returning servicemen and women reintegrate back into their families, communities and jobs. The program was created three years ago and has served 1,266 veterans, connecting them with the necessary social services, providing emotional and physical support, offering employment services and distributing funds for emergency needs. Goodwill’s Veterans Job Connection, which serves veterans, their spouses and families, provides clients with a life coach, information and referral services, training and tuition reimbursement and employment services. Goodwill also participates in and presents special events to recognize and honor service men and women, and veterans, including Memorial Day parades and Flag Day observances. Coming up on June 16, Goodwill will present “Salute the Runway,” honoring the community’s women veterans.
