Student Veteran Social Support Group
The Student Veteran Social Support Group will focus on allowing student veterans to share resources, opportunities and experiences that are unique to being a student and a veteran at Boise State University. Participants will be encouraged to explore their own personal experience and share with others their personal struggles and those things that have allowed the student veteran to be successful. Another hope for this group will be to foster a sense of camaraderie and community among this population that will aid in a sense of belonging on campus. This group will be an open group that will add members throughout the semester.
