Hire Heroes USA Announces Partnership with Unite Us To Expand Resource Network for Military Families

ALPHARETTA, Ga – Hire Heroes USA, a veterans nonprofit organization, announced it is expanding its partnership with Unite Us, the nation’s leading technology company connecting health and social care services, to address the unmet needs of individuals and their families through a secure coordinated care network. This network of services will benefit transitioning military members, veterans and military spouses in need.

Hire Heroes USA empowers U.S. military members, veterans, and military spouses to succeed in the civilian workforce. With more than 65,000 confirmed hires, 40,000 jobs on its job board, and more than 1,450 volunteers, it is the country's most effective veteran employment nonprofit, enabling the military community to transfer their skillsets into successful civilian careers.

Unite Us and Hire Heroes USA began working together in 2018 with the AmericaServes networks, and have since expanded to statewide coverage across 36 states and Washington D.C. Over the last four years, Hire Heroes USA has received more than 200 requests from veterans and their families for assistance, and has successfully connected them to the Unite Us network.

“Partnering with a coordinated care network such as Unite Us enables us to connect Hire Heroes USA clients with essential resources. This helps them return their focus to the job search. With the recent expansion of the Unite Us network, we can help even more military families in new locations,” said Sandy Kaider, manager of referral and training partners at Hire Heroes USA.

This partnership will now provide increased access to six new networks and seven additional states, which will be added each month incrementally beginning Tuesday, May 3. Network services include access to income support, transportation, housing and more.

“Our partnership with Hire Heroes USA will connect veterans, transitioning service members, and their dependents to much-needed services across the nation,” said Adrienne Sherk, senior director of community-based organization partnerships at Unite Us. “As a veteran myself, I’m grateful for organizations like Hire Heroes USA, as they work to ensure our military community members and their families have access to the resources they need to live healthy and fulfilling lives. Unite Us is honored to support Hire Heroes USA and their efforts to connect the military community to a national network that will empower them to succeed,” she added.

“Hire Heroes USA assists service members, veterans, and military spouses across the U.S. as they search for new careers. Our clients often have needs that fall outside the scope of their career search, but these critical needs impact their lives and professional goals,” said Kaider.
