Our Mission

The Kern County Veterans Chamber of Commerce is dedicated to providing a supportive network for veterans, focusing on personal and professional growth. We offer a range of resources, including networking opportunities, mentorship programs, and support for veteran-owned businesses. Through events and initiatives, we advocate for entrepreneurship, mental health awareness, and inclusive policies, aiming to create a strong support system for veterans in Kern County.

Our mission is simple: empower veterans. We do that through entrepreneurship, career development, mental health support, and community.

May is a critical month:

-Military Appreciation
-Mental Health Awareness
-Memorial Day – a sacred time.

We don't just say "thank you." We build pathways. We help veterans launch businesses, access therapy, and support military families.

But we can't do it alone.

Join us. Your membership directly invests in veteran-owned businesses, mental health, and leadership – right here in Kern County.
