If you need work, training, or a career reset in North Carolina, start with the systems built to serve veterans first: NCWorks career centers, installation transition programs, and VA Veteran Readiness and Employment if you have a service-connected disability. These programs can help with resumes, job leads, hiring events, training plans, and referrals to employers that already understand military experience.

Your best first call is usually NCWorks at (919) 707-1150 or the North Carolina Department of Military and Veterans Affairs at 1-844-624-8387. If you are separating soon from Fort Liberty or Camp Lejeune, contact your installation transition office now. If a disability is affecting work, call VA at 1-800-827-1000 and ask about VR&E.
