CHHS Celebrates Veterans

On November 11, the College of Health and Human Services (CHHS) celebrated the dedication, integrity, and selflessness of Veterans. CHHS is committed to creating new structures and programs touching on research and outreach with an emphasis on Veterans and their families. Concerned with the well-being and seamless transition of returning veterans into degree programs, faculty will receive special training in the needs of student-veterans.The College has established the new Academy for Veterans and Military Family Health, a collaboration with the Division of Student Affairs, ROTC and a variety of veteran-serving organizations from the community. The Academy will provide a structure to provide learning and research experiences for students wishing to work with veterans and their families upon graduation.

Says Dean, Dr. Nancy Fey-Yesan, “It is time, our turn, and our privilege to now serve those who have served us so well.”
