031: Raffa Gibbard & Renona Riddle Brown - Women Entrepreneurs Discuss VA Veteran Employment Track

Even if you are not a veteran, chances are likely that you know someone who is, and they may be able to take advantage of the programs that exist for military service members coming back from duty who want to re-engage with the workforce in a unique way. Now in today’s episode we are doing things a little differently. Instead of featuring one guest, I am interviewing two. Two unique business owners, both women both veterans that have leveraged the Veterans Administration Vocational Rehabilitation & Employment program to build their businesses. Raffa Gibbard owner of Brave One Contract Agency and Renona Riddle Brown owner of Hurmar Solutions. What makes them unique is that they used two different Vocational Rehab Veteran employment tracks to accomplish their goals.  In this episode we explore each of their stories and how they were able to design their own path to entrepreneurship while the Department of Veteran Affairs supported aided them along their journey.
