We're on a mission to connect veterans with under-resourced communities |
The Mission Continues is a national, nonpartisan nonprofit that empowers veterans to continue their service, and empowers communities with veteran talent, skills and preparedness to generate visible impact.
Veterans possess the drive and desire to serve others, but without access to the tools needed, their potential to make meaningful impact at the local level remains untapped. On the other end of the spectrum growing numbers of communities in this country are under-resourced and being left behind.
At The Mission Continues, we’re on a mission to connect veterans with under-resourced communities.
Our programs in cities across the country deploy veteran volunteers alongside nonprofit partners and community leaders to improve educational resources, increase access to parks and green spaces, foster neighborhood identity, and more.
Our vision is for all veterans with a desire to continue their service to be part of a movement to transform communities.
The Mission Continues has five core values. These core values go beyond a list in an employee’s training manual – they reverberate through the words, actions and spirit of our staff, program members and volunteers.
We work hard because our work changes lives and shapes communities. That’s why we tackle every day and every mission with enthusiasm.
We can always count on each other to be honest and follow through on our promises. We are ethical and conduct ourselves with integrity in all that we do.
We do not stand still. We know growth happens outside of our comfort zones. We constantly stretch to make ourselves better and to do more for veterans.
We believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and that they can make a difference. We embrace diverse ideas and opinions and know we can accomplish more together.
We are passionate about our work and it brings us great joy. We celebrate our accomplishments together and encourage each other through challenges.
