On Saturday, April 18th, from 9am to 4pm, an area organization that supports women military veterans will team up with three elected officials to host a free Prince William County Veterans Resource & Job Fair. The event will be held at Ebenezer Baptist Church at 13020 Telegraph Road in Woodbridge.
The lead organization hosting the event will be Women Veterans Interactive, a nationally recognized not-for-profit organization that supports women veterans through various programs. U.S. Army veteran Tammi Lambert, a resident of Woodbridge and a Women Veterans Interactive member who deployed to Iraq while on active duty, has coordinated event planning efforts over the last several months.
Joining Lambert as a co-host will be Del. Richard L. Anderson (R-51st), a retired 30-year Air Force colonel and chairman of the General Assembly Military and Veterans Caucus. Del. Michael T. Futrell (D-2nd), whose district includes Quantico Marine Base, will also co-host the event. Dumfries Town Councilman Derrick Wood (D-Dumfries), a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, will also serve as a co-host for the job fair.
