National Guard partnership helps soldiers transition to civilian life
Audio
Almost 19 percent of a Minnesota National Guard unit currently stationed in Kuwait will face unemployment upon their homecoming in May.
In order to prepare troops for their job searches and post-secondary education planning before their homecoming, the newly formed Employment Resource Team deployed itself to Kuwait. The team, a public-private partnership, provided trainings ranging from how to transition military skills to civilian skills to where to look for jobs and how to network.
Maj. Aaron Krenz has been leading the Minnesota National Guard's Beyond the Yellow Ribbon program and he joins The Daily Circuit Friday to explain this innovative approach to preparing soldiers as they transition back into civilian life.
