American Corporate Partners (ACP)

American Corporate Partners (ACP) is a national nonprofit organization focused on helping Veterans and Active-Duty Spouses find their next careers through one-on-one mentoring, networking and online career advice.

ACP offers tailored programs to help Veterans and Active-Duty Spouses succeed. Whether you’re looking for support or want to make a difference as a Mentor, we have opportunities for you to get involved and achieve your goals.

Founder Sidney E. Goodfriend launched American Corporate Partners on Labor Day 2008 with the help of six founding corporate partners who provided funding to ACP and volunteer Mentors. By the end of 2009, ACP had paired 500 returning Veterans with Mentors. In November 2018, ACP announced it was expanding its reach and opening its program to the Active-Duty Spouse community. Currently, ACP has more than 5,000 Veterans and Active-Duty Spouses paired one-on-one with Mentors from more than 1,500 of America’s top companies, universities, and hospitals.

Since its founding, ACP has focused on expanding its number of corporate partners, reaching out to a larger number of returning military and designing several new programs and initiatives to help an increasing number of Service Members, Veterans, and their families.
