Veteran Women's Enterprise Center CEO VR Small named among 2021 Women Veteran Trailblazers by Veteran Administration

DALLAS, TEXAS, UNITED STATES, April 26, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) Center for Women Veteran’s (CWV) 2021 Trailblazers: Women Veterans Leading the Way campaign has tapped Navy Veteran and CEO and Founder of the Veteran Women’s Enterprise Center (VWEC), VR Small, as one of their honorees.

CWV sponsors the annual campaign in honor of Women’s History Month and throughout the year celebrates the contributions of these trailblazers and women Veterans, representing all military branches, during and after their military service. “The Trailblazer recognition really speaks to the work that the VWEC has done in leading the way in innovative programming for veteran women entrepreneurs,” says Small. “We launched the first Dallas/Fort Worth Veteran Women’s Grant Program, and it empowered the women that participated in our program to not only survive COVID 19, but we were able to literally take them to the next level and transform their businesses; so, they could thrive. Receiving this honor from the VA was humbling and made us very proud about the work that we are doing.
