Veterans from all periods of military service are eligible for job referral, job training and job placement assistance through the Virginia Employment Commission (VEC). Veterans may access these employment services through a statewide network of VEC offices. We also work with those that are currently transitioning out of the military. Veterans can also contact us at veteran.services@vec.virginia.gov(link sends e-mail). Please include your City/County or zip code so your message is directed to the nearest VEC office.
