OVERVIEW

VALOR is an HMIS program designed to provide support and resources to our employees, prospective employees, and other members of the of the community who have honored us with their military service. HMIS values the commitment and sacrifice veterans have made and recognizes that the attributes and skillsets acquired during military service are ones that could significantly benefit the Hanford Site.
