California ESGR volunteers, this is your website! We maintain it on behalf of the thousands of National Guard and Reserve members and their families from California who are serving here in California and around the world. On this page you will find the forms, directions, and presentation materials you need to be an effective volunteer. Below the navigation links to the left is contact information to reach our staff if you have any questions or volunteer needs. Your CA ESGR website administrator's e-mail is listed below that if you have any submissions (news, pictures, events) or corrections for this site. Please note that all submissions will be reviewed by qualified volunteers and staff prior to publication.
In the days and months to come this site will grow with a calendar of events, a photo album of California ESGR activities and events, and more tools to assist us in our mission
Your input is welcome for your website!
Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) Mission
Vision
Almost half of our military force resides in the Reserve Component which is comprised of the National Guard and Reserve. The men and women who serve in the Reserve Component are unique in that they also have civilian employers. Support of America’s employers and the employees they share with the nation ensures the viability of the all-volunteer force, and thus our national security.
Become an ESGR volunteer!
Our dedicated volunteers come from all walks of life. We are business executives, civic leaders, and patriotic citizens. Some of our volunteer activities include the following:
Members of the National Guard and Reserve and their civilian employers form an alliance that is essential to our nation’s national security. These brave men and women perform critical roles in disaster relief efforts at home and continue to serve around the world to ensure our freedom. They could not perform their critical mission without support from people just like you.
Your involvement, with as little as a few hours a month, can improve the employer relations of the brave men and women that place themselves in harms way, leave their families and put their careers on hold as they preserve our way of life.
As an ESGR volunteer you become a contributing citizen to our National Security. Besides helping your community, volunteer hours also count towards the President’s Volunteer Service Award.
Not an ESGR volunteer? To become a volunteer please click here. This will open your e-mail client, and we ask you to include your name and confirm your e-mail address before you click "Send." You will receive the forms via e-mail. If you have any questions, include those in your e-mail or call your local ESGR office.
