Mission Statement
Veterans Campaign is a non-partisan, non-profit educational organization whose mission is to empower, mentor, and prepare veterans for a "second service" in civic leadership.
About This Cause
We believe that our country’s veterans are a valuable yet largely untapped source of civic and political leaders. In a recent study by Civic Enterprises, over 90% of veterans expressed an interest in continuing their public service. Veterans possess many qualities our country and communities need in our civic and political leaders: a commitment to serve, outstanding leadership experience in the face of adversity, familiarity with a broad cross-section of American society, and an intimate understanding of the human consequences of Washington’s foreign policy decisions. Yet few are challenged to pursue a "second service" in civic leadership--we hope you join us in recruiting, mentoring, and preparing the "next Greatest Generation" of America's leaders. Our programming includes: Second Service Fellowship: a graduate-level program of comprehensive professional development, academic coursework, mentorship, and preparation for a select cohort of emerging veteran leaders Political Leadership Workshops: Veterans Campaign holds weekend workshops across the country to teach Veterans the fundamental skills they need to run a successful campaign. Distinguished Speakers Series: A monthly forum for veteran politicians and senior leaders in government to share their experiences and answer questions with aspiring veterans in an informal environment. Research and Analysis: Veterans Campaign continually researches the performance of veterans in politics, including successful campaign tactics for veterans on the local, state, and federal levels, and civic leadership. These findings inform our guides and curriculum to inform our constituents in best practices and lessons learned as they pursue their second service. Women Veterans Leadership Collaborative: in conjunction with numerous partner organizations, Veterans Campaign has made a special investment in recruiting, empowering, and educating women veterans to lead in their communities and national initiatives.
