market and to enhance job skills to compete for future employment. WHEREAS it would be in the best interest of Oakland County to provide a veterans’ internship program to
afford veterans with on-the-job training, work experience and the tools needed in order to overcome the obstacles to obtain employment and thereby enhance their ability to more effectively compete in the job
