“Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve works tirelessly to make sure our returning heroes have the ability to earn a living – giving them their livelihoods and lives back after they’ve defended ours.”

The Aventura Marketing Council’s February breakfast meeting hosted by Memorial Regional Hospital South and Warren Henry Auto Group featured a tribute to members of the military and a presentation by James G. Rebholz, Chair of the National Committee for Department and Defense, Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve. Rebholz oversees national ESGR operations with a network of over 4,200 volunteers located in every state, the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Europe.

AMC Chair Cliff Schulman of Weiss, Serota, Helfman welcomed business and community leaders gathered at the Newport Beachside Hotel & Resort, who learned about the many benefits associated with hiring unemployed Guard and Reserve veterans returning home from tours of duty.

Following the presentation of colors by the Navy Jr. ROTC of Krop Sr. High and the National Anthem sung by Jasmine Michaels of Alonzo and Tracy Mourning Sr. High, Rebholz emphasized, ““When you hire a Guard and Reserve person, you’re getting somebody who has been tested under stressful conditions; shows initiative; is dependable and disciplined; has an innate sense of responsibility; will be drug-free, physically fit and willing to work. I believe that is the definition of an employee that any employer would want to have.”

Rebholz also requested input and information. “Tell us what would make it easier for you to employ a military member and what policies you think could benefit your business.”
