Grant Overview

Donor: State of New Jersey

About: New Jersey provides certification for Veteran-Owned Businesses (VOB) and Disabled Veteran-Owned Businesses (DVOB). To qualify as a VOB, a business must be independently owned and operated, with at least 51% ownership by veterans. For DVOB certification, the business must meet the same criteria, with at least 51% ownership by disabled veterans or those verified by the VA as service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. This certification process ensures that veteran-owned businesses are recognized and supported within the state.

Certification requires annual re-verification to maintain the status, ensuring that the businesses continue to meet the necessary criteria. This initiative aims to honor the service of veterans and provide them with opportunities to thrive in the business world. By offering certification, New Jersey opens doors to potential state contracts and various funding opportunities, helping veteran-owned businesses grow and succeed. The program is an ongoing effort, with no specific deadline, allowing eligible businesses to apply at any time.
