Getting to work: Nonprofit Volunteers of America helps displaced veterans find jobs

Shan Spencer moved to Helena three years ago, and each year since he’s talked to between 50 and 100 veterans who are homeless or without a permanent residence and tried to find work for them.

Spencer works for Volunteers of America http://www.voa.org/ , a national nonprofit that connects veterans with services ranging from treatment centers to per diem programs.

"Basically we’re out there being a veteran advocate and trying to get them back on their feet," Spencer said.
