For community leaders

FOR PASTORS, COMMUNITY LEADERS, AND MENTORS.

Young people in your community are looking to you for guidance. The Guard is the branch that keeps them here — part-time service, state-local units, college paid, and a culture of community response during disasters. Here's what I want you to know.

Local presence

GUARD UNITS ARE RIGHT HERE.

Our armory is in this community. Our Soldiers live in this community. When the Governor activates us for a flood, a storm, a search-and-rescue — we are the people showing up for our own neighbors.

Who they become

BUILT BY SERVICE.

Young Guard Soldiers come back to your community with discipline, leadership, a trade, and a paid path through college. The Guard doesn't take your young people away — it builds them up inside the community they grew up in.

Faith and values

THE CHAPLAIN PROGRAM.

The Guard has a chaplain program that supports Soldiers and their families across every tradition. I can connect you with our state chaplain corps — many of whom are pastors in their civilian lives.

Making the intro

HOW TO SEND SOMEONE MY WAY.

Share my page. Pass them my phone number. I answer questions — no pressure, no pitch. I will treat the young person you send me the way I would want a recruiter to treat my own kid.

FAQ

THE QUESTIONS I HEAR MOST.

How do I make a warm intro?

Call me or share my page with the person directly. No pressure, no pitch — I answer questions.

Does the Guard have a chaplain program?

Yes. Many state chaplains are pastors in their civilian lives. I can connect you.

How do I learn more about the Guard presence in our community?

Ask me — I'll share the local footprint and upcoming service events.

What does the Guard do during disasters?

Storms, floods, search-and-rescue, wildfire support. When the Governor calls, we respond inside our own state. Ask me about recent activations.
