For those employers who receive the Freedom Award, their support for their Guard and Reserve employees is above reproach. During trainings, drills, and activations, organizations like Renown Health have made all the difference by ensuring employee's families and member's transitions are supported at all times.

Renown Health is the largest locally owned not-for-profit healthcare network in Northern Nevada. With more than 100 Guard, Reserve and veterans on staff, Renown helps translate military service to civilian work experience to ease the transition for veterans to find employment. Since 2008, it has supported 35 Title 10 deployments by its employees, handling all paperwork and issues prior to the deployment. During deployments, Renown maintains contact with deployed employees and their families.

Citizen soldiers sacrifice much in serving their country. The unwavering commitment of Freedom Award recipients like Renown Health help ensure that their employees have the flexibility to succeed both at work and in the military.
