such, Halcyon offers free training programs

that teach important life-improving concepts

of meditation, positive thinking, self-

reflection, behavior awareness, and goal

Veterans Workforce Development Program,

through which returning veterans are

trained in IT skills and provided assistance

in finding IT jobs. The company has

successfully trained and placed several

veterans through this non-profit program.

“Employees of Halcyon, along with their families,

have been volunteering with Friends of the Homeless

for the better part of the last decade. They prepare

meals for the 150+ men who stay at the shelter once a

month and bring the meals in and serve dinner to the

residents. Halcyon has not diminished their

assistance in any way during the recent economic

downturn. Their commitment to those suffering from

hunger and food insecurity in our community is

unwavering and so I believe they are deserving of this

nomination.” – Erin Martin, Program Manager, Friends

of Homeless
