Dear Employer your help is needed!

As one of 85,000 employers in the region, we are counting on your support to help ALL of troops find their place as civilians. Each year throughout San Diego County over 15,000 service members transition from military service with another 37,000 remaining in the area seeking a new life. Most of them struggle to enter the civilian job market despite the skills they developed in the military.

“The toughest battle they face is the journey home; as many will have to battle – unemployment, homelessness, suicide, drug abuse, depression, and anxiety.” Maurice Wilson, MCPO (RET)

Recent surveys reveal that:

  • Over 90% of returning service members do not feel ready to enter the civilian job market.
  • A same number have not defined their new career goals and are unclear about next steps.
  • Many struggle to overcome anxiety, self-doubt , and negative thoughts.
  • A big number feel lost after living in the highly structured and disciplined world of the military.

The current government-operated transition program focuses only on information about their benefits and falls short of mentally preparing our troops for the battle to return home.

To answer the call, we developed the REBOOT Workshop. REBOOT is a three-week Workshop developed by the National Veterans Transition Services, Inc. (NVTSI) that has proven to be 97% successful in helping over 1500 transitioning service members and veterans win the battle by using evidence-based methods to help them create a new identity; discover their purpose/passion; and aligning their goals with a new career of their choice.

Taking a innovative and holistic approach to learning, REBOOT Workshops™ builds upon a service member’s military training and skills to help participants redefine their personal identity, purpose in life, and desired occupation. Veterans are immersed in a reflective and engaging curriculum that successfully bridges the gap between military and civilian worlds.

The REBOOT Workshop™ is a three-week, cohort-based program that builds the emotional, psychological, social, and professional skills necessary for successful reintegration into civilian life. REBOOT’s intensive and personalized approach to reintegration utilizes cognitive restructuring to help participants redefine their life – from the inside out.
