Host Dave Fisher for Network X interviews John who describes his work “with a community organization in Washington DC called CHOICES, the Committee for High School Options & Information on Careers, Education, and Self-Improvement. The organization has two purposes. One is to reach out to youth who are already being barraged with pro-military recruiting messages and to give them a more realistic picture of military life and a critique of some of the disinformation that the recruiters are giving them. The other purpose is to actually give them choices, actual options of civilian job training or job placement and alternate civilian educational funding for further education or vocational training skills; training or apprenticeships that they can benefit from in long term without having to take the risk that they put themselves out by going into the military.”
