Veteran Youth Corps
Leave No Veteran Behind has created a structured program to improve community
resilience in disinvested communities. Our strategy protects the integrity of the
educational process, builds solid citizens, and engages a unique niche market by
providing schools in low-income neighborhoods with safety and mentorship services.
These services seek to improve the ability of a community to utilize available
resources to respond to, withstand, and recover from adverse situations. Most
Veterans express a desire to serve their communities and nation even when out of
uniform. Through our strategies Veterans are provided transitional jobs and training
that improve community outcomes. https://www.resilientchicago.org/

Safety Services
Currently, Leave No Veteran Behind has multiple contracts providing safety related services in the Chicagoland area. Part of our training regimen includes 20 hours of unarmed security training to Veterans selected in our transitional employment program. This training allows Veterans to receive their Permanent Employment Registration Card (PERC). This card allows the Veteran to work in security related fields anywhere in the state of Illinois.
This training provides our Veteran clients the ability to find flexible employment while they search for long-term employment. Safety services is a natural fit for the skills
that Veterans learned in the military. The goal of this training, however, is to primarily provide an unemployed Veteran an opportunity for quick employment that will help stabilize their financial situation or to provided added income while they receive an education in their field of interest. If a Veteran is interested in safety/security as a
