Platform_R_TagLine.png

The Platform to Employment (P2E) Program for Veterans is designed to reconnect unemployed Veterans with the workforce in Connecticut. P2E offers a variety of support services and access to career-related tools, best practices, behavioral health services, and other resources to strengthen skills in order to secure employment. P2E has assisted over 80% of our Connecticut graduates to secure work. 


If you are a Veteran and do not reside in Connecticut, please visit the American Job Center website sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration to identify resources in your community. http://www.careeronestop.org 


NOTE: Due to Covid-19, and out of concern for your health and well-being, our upcoming cohorts will be held remotely via Zoom. To participate, you should have access to reliable Wi-Fi and technology such as a laptop, desktop, Kindle, iPad or a similar device.


This application is for unemployed Connecticut Veterans only!
