“When I left the Navy in 1991 I had very little idea where life would take me. I knew that I had skills I learned from the Navy and Grants that would help me further my education. Knowing now the opportunities I have been given and some really good people I have gotten to know and work with in Niagara I would not change a single thing in the path I have taken that has brought me to the here and now.

We Hire Vets Employer Recognition Program

We are proud to announce that our Texas plants have been recognized for a second consecutive year by the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) and Texas Veterans Commission (TVC) for our participation in the “We Hire Vets” program.

Launched in 2017, “We Hire Vets” is an employer recognition program developed by the TWC to recognize Texas employers for their commitment to hiring veterans. Employers whose workforce is composed of at least 10 percent military veterans are eligible for the “We Hire Vets” designation, which allows the employer to use the logo on their website and facility.

“We Hire Vets” is a component of TWC’s Texas Operation Welcome Home initiative, a program designed to better meet the needs of transitioning service members, recently separated veterans, and military spouses in Texas.
