Phil Randazzo
Founder of American Dream U
After working with a special forces soldier who was in 24/7 fight or flight mode, pre-diabetic, and not able to sleep through the night, I was able to help him change a few things about his morning and evening routine to get him on track to create the life he wanted.
This led me on a mission to help other veterans and military personnel, and in 2003 I founded American Dream U, a military transition program (both online and in person) that helps transitioning military members find their dream job or start a business after they leave the military.
American Dream U offers two main services for transitioning veterans:
- Online programs and educational workshop events. American Dream U’s online programs (ADU LIVE) are catered to helping veterans become successful professionals in the world of business, with breadth in courses; everything from entrepreneurship to the intricacies of setting up a LinkedIn profile.
- American Dream U’s workshop events are fueled by the same purpose; offering unique, differentiating benefits when paired with the online courses such as networking and connecting with other veterans, as well as hearing personal success stories of post-service careers.
Who We Help
Military, Veteran and spouses are our mission and the stats below reflect the need. Here at American Dream U, we believe that a smoother transition will go a long way in improving these stats in the future.
- The unemployment rate for all veterans in February 2021 was 5.5 percent, currently it is at its high at 7.6%
- About 500,000 veterans across the country actively looking for jobs
- Approximately 264,000 servicemembers transition from military service to civilian life each year, according to DOD
- 2 out of 3 new veterans will find it difficult to transition
- 22 – 28 veterans will commit suicide each day
