Carter Wells, Government Relations Advisor, was appointed as one of the 11 distinguished leaders to the Alabama Veterans Resource Center (AVRC) Board, a new initiative designed to develop a statewide, sustainable hub dedicated to supporting veterans and their families. A component of Governor Kay Ivey’s 2025 legislative agenda, this center will provide job training and workforce assistance, aid in benefits navigation, support with family and legal needs, and build peer and social connections in the veteran community.

“During this past legislative session, I made it a top priority to strengthen our support for Alabama’s veterans, and establishing the Veterans Resource Center was a key part of that effort,” said Governor Ivey. “Our servicemen and women deserve accessible, reliable support as they navigate civilian life. With this board now in place, we’re taking a major step forward in making sure Alabama remains the most military- and veteran-friendly state in the nation.”

Board members, comprised of leaders in Alabama’s state government and the private sector, spoke at the Board’s inaugural meeting regarding their plans to improve support programs for Alabama’s veterans.
