Where Opportunity Knox is Greater Louisville’s goal to connect 10,000 veterans to jobs and our region by 2017. Please let us know how we can best help you!
An initiative of the Kentucky Indiana Exchange (KIX), Where Opportunity Knox represents our region’s commitment to those who have served our country and to our employers who so clearly need the talent that these veterans represent.
Where Opportunity Knox is not a job placement service. There are many organizations, job boards, etc. to fill that need. This initiative is about developing a pipeline of transitioning veterans who are looking for a post-military place to live and work – a place that values veterans, offers a high-level quality of life and has a diverse and robust economy with available jobs and careers. The Greater Louisville Region is that place and Where Opportunity Knox is making those connections.
Through a network of trained Regional Veteran Connectors (RVCs) and a host of knowledgeable volunteers, Where Opportunity Knox is making the connections veterans need to find the right civilian job and the right civilian community. Where Opportunity Knox also provides a single online source for transitioning families to get the information they need about available jobs, schools, churches, housing, and overall quality of life in the Greater Louisville Region.

I have to say that is a very punny name. I don't live in this area but is this a pipe line to access those services? Or to make those connections at one spot instead of going out and looking for them? What are the expectations of a soldiers once they call you?

LT Rosa,
You have it exactly right. Where Opportunity Knox is a one-stop shop for individuals interested in transitioning to the 26-county region around Louisville, KY and southern Indiana. Any military members, veterans, or spouses are welcome to utilize our services to connect them to jobs, educational opportunities, information on the area, etc. There are no expectations, we are simply a resource for those interested in locating to the area or who are willing to go where they find the best job.
