Veterans bring a wealth of skills, competencies, and federal benefits that can significantly enrich our local labor market and community. With educational support, housing assistance, health benefits, and other resources, veterans contribute to the economic vitality and resilience of the areas they call home.
Thousands of veteran’s transition from active duty annually and are equipped to start the next chapter of their careers. Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce’s Talent Strategy team is committed to attracting these highly trained and disciplined professionals to the Rochester area.

Through a strategic focus on employer engagement, relocation support, and family assistance, we proudly serve those who served us, offering direct connections to employers and meaningful job opportunities as veterans shift from military to civilian life.
