Green Collar Vets is a nonprofit organization. Our mission is to coordinate skill development, education and employment opportunities in emerging Green Industries for U.S. military veterans .
Our goal is to ensure that those men and women who have served our country with distinction and who are now interested in civilian careers that lessen our dependence on oil, or lessen the impact of toxins in our environment, have a guiding hand to find that job - and the additional support to be successful in it. The end result will providea competent, professional workforce for the installation, operation, maintenance and management of green products and services across the country.
Green Collar Vets is a nationwide organization that promotes operations at a grass roots level. We believe in the power of local communities to support their own veterans' needs and opportunities, as well as their local emerging Green industries.
