ADDITIONAL MILITARY COMMUNITY SUPPORT:

o    ACP is focused on helping returning veterans and active-duty spouses find their next careers through one-on-one mentoring, networking and online career advice. ACP engages interested volunteers in a unique opportunity to provide career guidance to returning military as they transition back into civilian life. ACP believes that the biggest issue facing returning service members is not unemployment – it’s underemployment, and it focuses on helping veterans and active-duty spouses find meaningful employment opportunities and develop long-term careers.

  • Youth from TAPS families will once again participate in a clinic on the showcase diamond at PLAY BALL Park during MLB All-Star Week in Seattle. PLAY BALL Park is an interactive baseball experience opening for four days in the host city as part of MLB’s All-Star festivities.
  • For the 2023 season, each Major League Club will receive $20,000 which may be used to support an organization, event, or initiative in their local market, further strengthening MLB’s overall support of the military.
