NextStep partners with the Department of Labor’s HIRE Vets Program. Through this partnership, we give back to our heroes by providing mentorship and long-term career development that enables veterans to successfully transition from military service to civilian life. Because of our contributions to the program, DoL awarded NextStep the Platinum Medallion.
NextStep partners with the U.S. Department of War SkillBridge Program to provide transitioning service members with hands-on training and real-world experience during their transition to civilian careers. NextStep helps veterans translate military skills into high-demand technology roles, reinforcing our commitment to our military citizen career success.
We are proud members and contributors of Gunston Hall, the historical home of George Mason. As the principal author of the Virginia Declaration of Rights, Mason articulated the core liberties such as freedom of religion, the press, and due process that later became cornerstones of the U.S. Bill of Rights. Mason was an advocate for liberty, limited government, and the rights of the people, Mason’s legacy continues to shape American democracy. As members, we help preserve and advance the history, values, and estate of this influential Founding Father.
NextStep is committed to conserving and protecting the environment and is a proud member and contributor to the Potomac Riverkeeper Network. We support its mission to protect the right to clean water for all communities and for everyone who lives in and depends on the Potomac and Shenandoah watersheds. Through efforts to stop pollution, safeguard drinking water, protect healthy river habitats, and promote the safe enjoyment of our waterways, the Network helps preserve these vital resources for current and future generations.
We believe this is a great cause; it enriches the National Capital Region, as these rivers sustain ecosystems, wildlife, and communities around, while providing valuable opportunities for recreation, water sports, and outdoor enjoyment.
