Goodwill Receives Donation to Support Veterans Services Program

Coconut Telegraph

Goodwill Manasota recently received a contribution of $7,500 from M.E. Wilson to support its Veterans Services Program, which provides full case management and vocational services that address barriers to employment, disabilities, mental health issues, housing, education and job skills training. The program, which was created in 2013, was created to help eliminate barriers to employment, provide opportunities for higher-paying positions for veterans and their families, and connect veterans with needed social services and the benefits to which they are entitled. The program is staffed by veterans, ensuring those who seek help are receiving it from those who understand the challenges they face. For more information about Goodwill’s veterans program, go to experiencegoodwill.org or call (941) 355-2721, ext. 451.
