About 84 percent of nonprofit leaders said that hiring veterans for national-service jobs benefits the country, according to a study released Tuesday.
The survey defined national service as “a temporary, full-time position, with a stipend, that is approximately six to 12 months in length.”
Nearly as many — 82 percent — said hiring veterans for such work benefits their communities, and 52 percent said at least one veteran works for their group or has in the past.
The online poll of 300 nonprofit leaders was released by ServiceNation, an organization that promotes national service, in conjunction with Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research and the advocacy groups Be the Change and Got Your 6. The study was supported by the Robert R. McCormick Foundation.
