Description

The Veterans Resource Outreach team invites staff and faculty to attend Dragon VALOR, a Veteran ally workshop, in the Faculty and Professional Learning Center (Library 124). The session is capped at 30 participants and is also available via Zoom. If you are interested in attending, please register via Dragon Central.

The mission of Dragon VALOR is to create a more welcoming and inclusive campus for our student Veterans and elevate their academic success. Creating a network of staff and faculty allies is essential to the success of Dragon VALOR and our current and future student Veterans.

By participating in Dragon VALOR, we will

  • Explore Military experiences and impacts
  • Recognize challenges facing student Veterans
  • Identify campus and community resources available to support student Veterans
  • Understand expectations of being a Dragon VALOR ally

Prior to attending either the morning or afternoon session, please create a free account at PsychArmor and watch “15 Things Veterans Want You to Know” (17 minutes). This video will be the basis for our discussion of student Veteran allies on campus. PsychArmor is a free comprehensive library of Military culture educational resources. (PsychArmor will not send you messages cluttering your inbox.)
