JEFFERSON CITY — The Office of the Missouri Military Advocate announced today the release of Missouri’s 2022 Military-Friendly Guide. The purpose of the Missouri Military-Friendly Guide is to connect military service members and their families with resources available to them across the state. It is intended to help service members learn more about the state and regions in which they live. The guide contains information on state taxes, employment assistance, licensing, education, and tourism, in addition to contact information for state government offices.
“The Office of Military Advocate, in partnership with the Missouri Department of Economic Development, is delighted to announce Missouri’s 2022 Military-Friendly Guide,” said Harry Roberts, Missouri Military Advocate. “For service members and their families, this guide provides information and resources across state government to ease the transition process.
