Independence Community College held Green Zone Advocacy Training for faculty, staff and students.

The ICC Green Zone Program is a training program designed to develop a campus community of support for veteran students. Faculty, staff and students were provided tools to enhance the overall college experience for military-affiliated students so they may guide and assist them towards degree completion and a successful future.

Director of Veteran Student Success Alan Parsons says transitioning from military life to student life can be tricky for student veterans and other military-connected students. He says the Green Zone program is devised to familiarize staff, faculty and college students to become more aware and supportive of the military-connected students.
