An event to help the community understand the strengths and challenges facing the veteran population is coming up tomorrow.

 

A Community Green Zone Training will take place at the Ron Stevenson Building in Walter Johnson Park, and organizer Loran Osborne says the event is beneficial for everyone who may casually encounter a Veteran, Dependent, or Family Member in any number of circumstances.

 

Osborne says one of the goals of the training is to build healthier communities.

 

Some of the topics covered will be basic communication and interaction, questions not to ask, military culture familiarization and public-friendly terminology in addition to resources for employers and neighbors.  The event will run from 11 a.m. until 4:45.  A link to register is available here.
