The goal of the annual evaluations is to not only bring the latest information and guidance to our readers, but also encourage active outreach and diversity policies among corporations and government agencies. The lists were compiled from market research, independent research, diversity conference participation and survey responses that were performed by DiversityComm’s agents and/or affiliates. This year, more than 250 companies and institutions participated.

“Veterans are entrepreneurial, they assume high levels of trust, and they’re resilient,” says Mona Lisa Faris, president and publisher of the U.S. Veterans Magazine. “This magazine was created to support our troops, and we at USVM are proud to recognize other businesses that are also making veterans a priority.”

The results are published in the summer issue of the U.S. Veterans Magazine, featuring Lou Diamond Phillips as the cover story and available on newsstands on August 15, 2014. Published by DiversityComm, the U.S. Veterans Magazine is a valuable career, business and benefits resource for veterans transitioning from military to civilian life. DiversityComm also publishes the Black EOE Journal, Professional Woman’s Magazine and Hispanic Network Magazine.
