Yesterday’s Paychecks for Patriots hiring event with @CareerSourceHP was a powerful reminder of Florida’s commitment to those who have served. Veterans bring unmatched leadership, discipline, and resilience — and Florida’s workforce system is proud to connect them with meaningful civilian careers. Honored to stand alongside employers and partners who share this mission, including @FLACommerce, @MyFLFamilies, @VetsFL, and Hope Florida. Together, we are meeting veterans where they are with career guidance, training, and wraparound support to help them succeed. Thank you to CareerSource Tampa Bay President & CEO Kedrian Kunkel, and her team for hosting—and to the many veterans who joined us yesterday. Florida is proud to stand with you. #PaychecksForPatriots #Veterans #CareerSourceFlorida
