Regions Bank is a Military Spouse Friendly® Employer
Each year, the Military Friendly® Company investigates and identifies American organizations that invest in programs to improve the lives of veterans. The company’s goal is to provide positive reinforcement to organizations who commit to serving the military and veteran community.
“We celebrate and honor employers who proudly bear the badge of Military Spouse Friendly® Employer. These forward-thinking organizations not only recognize the sacrifices military spouses make but also embrace the invaluable contributions they bring to the workforce. Being designated as Military Spouse Friendly® is not just an award, it’s a commitment to fostering a workplace culture that appreciates resilience, adaptability, and unwavering dedication.”
Kayla Lopez, Director of Military Partnerships, Military Friendly®
This year, Regions Bank was selected as a Military Spouse Friendly® Employer for their work supporting military-friendly career opportunities for several reasons, including:
- Establishing BRAVE (Building Regions Associate Veteran Experience), a career transition program designed to support veterans and military spouses during their transitions to the civilian workforce
- Being a member of the Military Spouse Employment Partnership (MSEP), a Department of Defense career program that connects military spouses with hundreds of member employers who commit to recruit, hire, promote and retain military spouses
- Working with Hiring Our Heroes, a national program that connects transitioning service members and their families with career opportunities
“Regions Bank deeply values the experiences and insights that military spouses, service members and veterans bring to our country, our communities and our company. Our company is made stronger by the integrity, skills and talents of associates who come from military backgrounds and military families. These colleagues represent various departments across the bank; what they all have in common is an unwavering commitment to excellence and a passion for quality service. It is our honor to provide career opportunities – and a workplace culture that truly values their experiences.”
