At the Board of Supervisors meeting Tuesday, the Board heard a presentation from Home Base Iowa. Home Base Iowa Program Manager Jathan Chicoine gave some insight into the program,  “Home Base Iowa is a one-of-a-kind public-private partnership that connects Veterans, Military personnel or family members with resources and opportunities in Iowa. It’s an older program that dates back to around 2014. It was really created as a workforce solution for the State of Iowa.”  Home Base Iowa connects Iowa businesses with qualified veterans and their spouses looking for career opportunities. The program also provides resources to help connect veterans and their families with education and in transitioning to a new community.
