ESGR Guam-CNMI

ESGR Guam-CNMI The ESGR Guam-CNMI Committee serves more than 2,700 Service Members on Guam, Saipan, Rota and Tinian, to sustain harmonious environments with Employers.

ESGR is a Department of Defense office seeking to promote a culture in which employers support and value the military service of their employees by advocating, recognizing, increasing awareness of the law and resolving conflict through mediation. ESGR, a Department of Defense office, was established in 1972 to promote cooperation and understanding between Reserve Component Service members and thei

r civilian employers and to assist in the resolution of conflicts arising from an employee's military commitment. ESGR is supported by a network of more than 4,900 volunteers in 54 committees located across all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Guam-CNMI, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Volunteers, hailing from small business and industry, government, education and prior military service bring a vast wealth of experience to assist in serving employers, service members and their families. Together with Headquarters ESGR staff and a small cadre of support staff for each State Committee, volunteers work to promote and enhance employer support for military service in the Guard and Reserve. ESGR has served our country for more than 40 years, fostering a culture in which all employers support and value the employment and military service of members of the National Guard and Reserve in the United States. These citizen warriors could not defend and protect us at home and abroad without the continued promise of meaningful civilian employment for themselves and their families. ESGR has continued to adapt to meet the needs of Reserve Component members, their families and America’s employers by joining forces with a network of other national, state and local government and professional trade organizations as together, We All Serve!

West Region Selects Donald Clark - Volunteer of the Year for Employer Outreach Director

Guam — Mr. Don Clark has been selected as the West Region Volunteer of the Year (VOTY) for Employer Outreach Director, an honor awarded by the West Region Chairs in recognition of exceptional volunteer service and impact.

Mr. Clark was chosen through a collective decision of 13 Western Committee Chairs, underscoring the broad regional support for his work. The selection was based on his outstanding efforts with the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR), particularly his work with the Department of Administration, including securing ESGR’s placement on the department’s monthly calendar—an achievement that significantly strengthened outreach and engagement with employers.

Special acknowledgment is extended to Ms. Lisa Fisher, who, during her tenure as Deputy Director of the Department of Administration, played an instrumental role in facilitating and supporting this collaboration.

Since the inception of this award in 2013, the Guam-CNMI Committee has not received a Volunteer of the Year award, making this recognition particularly meaningful and historic.

“Don’s selection as West Region Volunteer of the Year is a testament to his dedication, professionalism, and ability to build impactful partnerships,” said Cathy Gogue, State Chair of the Guam-CNMI Committee. “His work exemplifies the spirit of volunteer service and directly strengthens the support network for our service members and the employers who stand behind them.”

As a volunteer organization, the Guam-CNMI Committee remains deeply grateful to its volunteers for their unwavering commitment to supporting service members and fostering strong employer relationships throughout the region.

This announcement was made to the state committees by ESGR Executive Director, U.S. Navy Captain Darren Bess, a Department of War program headquartered in Washington DC.

About ESGR: The Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) is a Department of War program established to promote cooperation and understanding between Reserve Component service member and their civilian employers. ESGR provides free education, consultation, and conflict mediation services to support service members and their employers.
