Welcome to InvestVets

Who We Are

INVESTVets aims to improve employment outcomes for those who have served in our nation's Armed Forces and their families in Michigan by eliminating cultural barriers and empowering veterans.

Established in July 2015 as the employment pillar of the Lansing Area Veterans Coalition, INVESTVets has focused on the most significant barrier to veterans’ employment: the military-civilian cultural gap.

This community-based organization connects employers with veteran and military talent by offering activities that reduce the high expectations and stress that are common with traditional job fairs. Comprising of stakeholders from private and public organizations and agencies, the INVESTVets network includes more than 500 employers throughout Michigan.
