IVMF Fast Facts Breakdown - D'Aniello Institute for Veterans and Military Families

Fast Facts: IVMF By The Numbers

To date, more than 200,000+ transitioning service members, veterans and military family members, were impacted by IVMF programs. In 2007, when we launched our very first program – before the IVMF was even founded – that number was 17. Those numbers matter because they speak to our mission, and the commitment of our people, our funders, our partners, and our world-class advisory board to take action to advance and positively impact the post-service lives of this nation’s veterans and their families.

THE WHY

  • Roughly 250,000 service members and their families are transitioning from the military each year making the need to focus on post-service lives even more critical
  • Almost half of transitioned service members said getting socialized to civilian culture was a top challenge after leaving service
  • Nearly 75% of transitioned service members indicated employment-related considerations are central to decisions concerning transition
  • 55% of service members do not want to pursue careers similar to their military careers
  • Nearly 60% of veterans say access to care and navigating services are among their top challenges.

THE WHO

  • Nearly 50 major external funders, including founding partner JPMorgan Chase & Co., as well as Schultz Family Foundation, The Walmart Foundation, First Data, USAA, Prudential, Accenture
  • Almost 100 professional staff across the country
  • Operating 14 national programs in 9 countries
  • Key Public Sector Partners: Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Department of Labor (DoL), U.S. Military Branches Small Business Administration (SBA), and many state and local partners
