OPERATION NEW UNIFORM, INC.
JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA

Operation New Uniform, Inc., is a nonprofit organization formed in Jacksonville, Florida, dedicated to helping veterans transition from military service to successful civilian careers. Since its incorporation on November 20, 2013, the mission of Operation New Uniform has been twofold: to cultivate confident veterans who are sought after in the business community and to provide these individuals with proven strategies and legitimate career opportunities deserving of their skills and service. The organization offers comprehensive programs that include over 30 hours of classroom training, 10 hours dedicated to resume building services, personalized one-on-one coaching, and continuous support resources. This robust framework has positioned Operation New Uniform as a leader in veteran support networks across the United States. To date, they have successfully graduated their 20th class, with an impressive track record where 92% of the 149 graduates from earlier cohorts secured career positions soon after completion. The initiative stems from recognizing the need to assist veterans in translating their military experience into civilian job market success, filling a gap noted in the veteran employment process post-service. Founded by Justice and currently led as Chief Executive Officer by Michele A McManamon, the organization not only focuses on professional development but also emphasizes building confidence. This effort helps veterans understand their value and develop strategies for effective self-marketing to potential employers. Operation New Uniform fosters partnerships through a veteran-focused company program with various organizations committed to supporting veterans' integration into the business community. Additionally, its influence and effectiveness are supported by collaborations with local entities like Jacksonville’s Military Affairs and Veterans Department, further illustrating the organization's commitment to serving those who have served their country.
