Project HIRED, whose job placement, training, and employment services have helped hundreds of people with disabilities find the right job with the right company for the last 30 years, announced today that they will host local and regional public officials, federal agencies, local business executives and disabled veterans at a Wounded Warrior Workforce Conference on Thursday, January 28, 2010, in San Jose.
The conference represents Project HIRED’s launch of its Wounded Warrior Workforce initiative, which will be a specialized sub-set of Project HIRED client services designed to provide veterans with disabilities the tools and resources they need to successfully transition into the civilian workplace. In addition, the Wounded Warrior Workforce program will also offer employers strategies and services for adding these dedicated and skilled heroes to their organizations.
One seminar will be held from 1:00 pm – 4:30 pm (PST) for veterans with disabilities who have completed (or will soon complete) rehabilitation and are ready to return to the workplace. The other seminar will be in the morning from 8:00 AM-12:00 PM, bringing together employers interested in starting or expanding their own program for hiring these veterans.
The event will be held at:
