In honor of Veterans Day, Secretary Jocelyn Mitnaul Mallette, a third-generation veteran and head of the North Carolina Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, joins the podcast to discuss her journey from the Air Force Academy to public service, her current mission to make North Carolina truly the "most veteran-friendly state," and why she accepted the role.
She outlines her priorities — sector collaboration, transition support, and economic opportunity — explains the department’s services (veteran service centers, state veterans homes, and cemeteries), and describes a statewide roadshow to help employers hire and retain veterans and military spouses ahead of Veterans Day.
