HKY4Vets (Hickory for Vets) assists transitioning military & military families find economic opportunities, resources & make valuable connections in the Hickory Metro of North Carolina.
In our work, especially in our 1-on-1 interactions with transitioning service members over the past year, we have identified an urgent need for a regional networking group in the Hickory Metro for our active duty, as well former military and military families.
If our hope is to become one most veteran-ready and veteran-supportive regions in the country, we truly need a group that offers a built-in network for professional growth and social opportunity serving those who have served. HKY4Vets Professional Connections is our effort to jumpstart this vision.
Please plan to join us for our kickoff event (location: Kickback Jack's) to meet other service members from around the region and to help define how a new group like Professional Connections can benefit you and others in the future.
In order to assist with us planning, we would be appreciative if you might preregister to attend.
