Jon Stewart is quietly continuing on with helping veterans enter the workforce in the television arena with his program Veterans in Film and Television.

The program aims to draw veterans into working in television by holding workshops lead by the Writers Guild of America as well as leading projects with producers and directors like Judd Apatow. It consists of a five-week boot camp to catch them up to date with other applicants who have had years of work experience.

The Daily Show developed this program three years ago but Stewart wants to make it public now that he’s leaving the show.

“This is ready to franchise. Please steal our idea,” he told the New York Times.

“It isn’t charity,” he added. “To be good in this business you have to bring in different voices from different places, and we have this wealth of experience that just wasn’t being tapped.”

Stewart has helped veterans before, taking credit for changing a flaw in the Department of Veterans Affairs’ Choice Program, which previously forced veterans to prove that they live within 40 miles of a VA facility.

Stewart revealed he was leaving the Daily Show after nearly 20 years in February.
