VINLAND EMPLOYMENT PROGRAM
The Vinland Employment Program is a free benefit for Unemployed Veterans. This is a terrific resource to help unemployed or under-employed veterans overcome barriers and return to work.  It specializes in helping individuals face and overcome multiple barriers to employment: barriers such as depression, chronic pain, PTSD, chemical dependency issues, family problems, and virtually any life circumstance that can interfere with the ability to seek and keep a job. The Employment Program typically involves a three week residential stay with weekend passes and other off site options.

Vinland is located 25 miles west of Minneapolis on beautiful Lake Independence.  To schedule a pre admission tour or just to ask questions, call Vinland`s Veterans Outreach Counselor, Al Cornelius at 612-479-4545 or e-mail to acornelius@vinlandcenter.org Al has helped hundreds of unemployed veterans sort out where they are, where they've been and, most importantly, where they want to go.
