Morningside
Morningside assists service members who are exiting the military who have disabilities. We help them navigate the system that will lead to connecting with our partners and obtaining a job. Our work in the Wounded Warrior Battalion at JBLM assisting military personnel move through the medical evaluation board and transition into civilian life has proven to speed the process for services men and women to obtain work in our community.
Providing employment opportunities for transitioning service members

The program offers a number of customized services to transitioning service members, including one-on-one career coaching, job placement services, short-term training, hiring fairs and more.
