The 1st Annual Veteran Suport Day at the Overland Park VFW Post 846 will bring services, assistance, education, and some employers to help veterans, veteran families, and veteran widows together with local businesses and support to help them with unmet needs and support. There is 10,000 veterans in the Overland park area alone and we want to reach out and help where we can.

We are looking for any businesses that would like to join this event to help reach out to our veterans. Looking for medical support, family support services, homelessness services, employers looking to hire and any other services that can fill an unmet need.

Please contact Joe Arnold at event@vfwpost846ks.org or call 913.216.5011 and leave a message. Thank you for your time and support.

Here you'll gain an understanding of veterans' skills and how they translate to your roles, information on how to effectively source veteran talent, and how to ensure cultural fit - all of which will help your company hire more heroes.
