Chicago Veterans Employee Directory

Non-profit OrganizationsUnited States2-10 Employees

We’re a group of passionate and determined creative problem-solving military veterans who want to make a difference in our community. We encourage veterans and supporters to join our mission and help make Chicago a world class city for veterans and their families. 

In 2013, a few combat Veterans from DePaul University in Chicago came together to help solve a problem and address their difficult transition to civilian life. Within a few short months, what started as a handful of student veterans from DePaul quickly grew to over 100 veterans from other Universities and campuses in the Chicago-land area. We quickly learned that our struggles to civilian life were universal, from finding quality employment, starting our health/educational benefits and most of all, our sense of camaraderie and unity we had while in the military. 

We decided to set a goal: to reach out and assist every one of our brothers and sisters we could and let them know there is a community that wants to help. In February of 2014 that simple idea, gave birth to Chicago Veterans and we were awarded our 501(c)3.

We are focused on 4 key area's that we identified as critical to the success of our veteran community: Employment Services, Educational Assistance, Networking and fostering Camaraderie between veterans.
