Anne Meree Craig on skills gaps after military service

Anne Meree Craig co-founded The COMMIT Foundation after September 11, 2001. Here, she explains the three ‘gaps’ that veterans experience after leaving the military. The COMMIT Foundation helps serve veterans during this transition period and focuses on creating serendipity for Post 9/11 Veterans.

Anne Meree joined the government shortly after 9/11 and began deploying around the world in direct strategic and operational support to the interagency. She sits on the National Board of Directors for Bunker Labs and the Board of Advisors for Promote Leadership. Her focus is Veteran purposeful living.

Organized by America’s Warrior Partnership, the Warrior Community Integration Symposium is an opportunity to share best practices, find innovative solutions, and form new collaborative partnerships to better help the veterans in their communities address the work challenges they sometimes encounter when making the transition to civilian life. 

WorkingNation set up its cameras at the Symposium and interviewed the speakers and attendees about the important issue of helping veterans deal with workforce challenges. You can follow the conversation on our social media under the hashtag #WorkingNationOverheard.
