Burlington County Commissioner Allison Eckel, who is the liaison to the Joint Base and the military, said the SkillBridge program would strengthen the county’s connections with the Joint Base and demonstrate its support for the installation’s military families.
“There’s no cost incurred by the county and our participation strengthens our ties with Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst by creating a pipeline for service members to qualify for good, local jobs,” Eckel said.
We value, and are thankful for, the men and women who protect our nation, and assisting with their transition from service through the SkillBridge program is another way the county can show our appreciation.”
