Careers with the Future Minnesota Veterans Homes

Staffing is a very important part of the future Veteran Homes planning process. The Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs (MDVA) is working closely with each community to identify education and employment resources that will help provide sustainable staffing solutions for each home.

MDVA wants to make sure that everyone has an equal opportunity to join their diverse team. They actively recruit, welcome and support a workforce, which is diverse and inclusive of people who are underrepresented, so that we can support all Veterans who call Minnesota home.

Continue to watch the Minnesota Careers website for job opportunities at the new Minnesota Veterans Home – Preston, including job postings for our leadership and other types of positions. Please  sign up to receive employment updates at the future Preston Veterans Home.

For more information about current employment opportunities at existing State Veterans Homes and MDVA, please visit the Work for MDVA page.

General Donations

The MN Veterans Home – Preston is under construction and ready to open in late Fall. This beautifully designed facility will be a great home for our Residents – and your donation will further enhance the environment and ensure the opening occurs with great success. General Donations made to the Minnesota Veterans Home – Preston will ensure that the opening of the home offers a warm, friendly and aesthetically pleasing environment for our new Residents. Donations will fund items such as televisions in resident rooms, benches and chairs for outdoor seating, recreational activity supplies and equipment, personal care items for Residents, and other personal needs that will enhance a Resident’s stay. General Donations will further enhance the appearance of facilities, grounds, or operations and offer additional amenities that ensure Residents and families can fully enjoy the new facility.
