The Overwatch Partnership is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in Columbus in 2016 by local veterans and business professionals to support veterans as they transition into the civilian job arena. Each experienced the challenging transition from active duty to the civilian workforce, understanding both the unique challenges veterans face in their transition, while also grasping the valuable experiences and skills veterans can provide to a hiring organization. In realizing the enormous power of networking and mentorship in their own careers, they decided to create an organization to collectively use their networks to support veterans in the transition and sustainment of a fulfilling career.
The name of the organization provides significant meaning behind its mission. “Overwatch” is a military term defined as providing cover to a fellow service member, which is the essence of its cause.
