San Antonio Steps Up for Veterans: New Initiatives to Aid Transition to Civilian Life
Hey there, San Antonio! The latest meeting of the Commissioner’s Court brought some heartening news for our local heroes: the veterans of our armed forces. As the court received an encouraging update from the Department of Military and Veterans Services, the commitment to supporting those who have served is stronger than ever! This year alone, over 337 service members from all branches of the military have found a new path in civilian life, thanks to various supportive initiatives.
Jobs That Pay Off
One of the key highlights from the briefing was the impressive success rate in helping veterans land jobs that not only suit their skills but also pay them a living wage. With an average salary of around $65,000 a year, it’s safe to say these warriors are stepping into their next chapter with financial security. The top industries tapping into this talented workforce? Government jobs, automotive positions, and, of course, the booming fields of I.T. and cybersecurity.
