Expanding the Center’s Impact Through Strategic Business Development & Resource Sharing
“When looking to make a real difference in the lives of veterans and military families, veteran-supporting individuals and organizations – large and small, from around the nation – seek out the Center.”
– Duncan S. Milne, Retired US Marine Corps Colonel, President,
Dixon Center for Military and Veterans Services
The Center for Military and Veterans Services continues to advance our mission of ensuring veterans and their families are empowered to thrive where they live and work, in part, by implementing strategic, relationship-driven business development efforts that foster long-term sustainability and expand our impact, as we work to establish meaningful, cross-connected relationships and partnerships in communities nationwide.
Over the past four months, the Center has entered into several collaborative agreements designed to share our intellectual property, leadership and expertise, as well as our programmatic resources, with aligned partners across the public, private, and nonprofit sectors. Through these partnerships, we enable our proven frameworks, curricula, and research-based tools to be adapted and deployed more broadly – expanding reach while preserving quality and mission integrity.
These collaborations also create diversified revenue streams through co-development, and shared-service models. We reinvest revenue generated from intellectual sharing directly into our core programs, and initiatives, ensuring long-term organizational resilience and reducing reliance on traditional funding sources alone.
Our approach reflects our team’s commitment to responsible growth – leveraging our thought leadership and institutional knowledge to benefit partners while advancing outcomes for military and veteran-connected families nationwide.
