Our nation’s veterans earned our respect through a career of public service and sacrifice. Maine recognizes your skills, passion, and what you bring to an organization - and we want you here. Maine has a dedicated non-profit, free-to-you resource called ‘Boots2Roots’ which confidentially works with you and your family to transition to Maine. From job searching to community connecting, Boots2Roots exists to serve you and your transition to our beloved state.They can start working with you as early as 2 years before your transition out of the military - it’s free, it’s confidential, and there’s no commitment required. We believe Maine will win you over, so we don’t make the hard sell - we just show you what’s possible.

After serving the US Navy for 24 years, Commander Jason Grower wasn't sure where the next chapter of his life and career would begin. Then he remembered his duty station in Brunswick, Maine. At the time he was stationed 6,000 miles away in Hawaii. He had little to no contacts in Maine but that all changed when he engaged with Boots2Roots. Watch his video to find out how he made it to Maine and what he recommends for other Veterans following in his footsteps.
