Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) is teaming up with the Texas Workforce Solutions networks and military bases to help service members who have recently left the military. We know that it can be tough to explain military skills to civilians, find jobs, finish college programs or get the right licenses or certifications for jobs.

The Welcome Home Texas Transition Alliance is a group of people who meet twice a year to talk about how to help veterans transition back to civilian life. They share their ideas and learn from each other's programs. The goal is to work together and improve job opportunities for veterans.
The groups include people from TWC, TVLP, TVC, military transition centers, garrison/base commanders, employers, employer associations, designated Boards and Workforce Solutions offices.
If you want to join the next Texas Transition Alliance meeting, contact Bob Gear at 512-936-6024 or email him at bobby.gearjr@twc.texas.gov. The next meeting is planned for December 12 to 14, 2023, at Texas A&M, Kingsville, TX.
This program is designed to assist transitioning military service members, recently separated veterans, and military spouses transition from military service to civilian employment. This program is dedicated to helping service members and veterans translate their military skills to the civilian labor market and would include employment services, training, and wraparound support services to transitioning service members (TSMs) and recently separated veterans (RSV) transitioning to civilian employment, as well as military spouses seeking permanent employment. This program will also assist these populations in finding apprenticeships with civilian employers.
