Military & Veteran Resource Center: Affinity Groups
The Military & Veteran Resource Center affinity groups aims to foster fellowship and networking among veterans and the military-affiliated whose identities have been marginalized in the wider military and veteran community. Isolation is already an issue within the veteran community, and can be experienced even greater when the veteran is a person of color, a woman, LGBTQIA+, disabled, etc. More importantly, depending upon a person’s identity, that disconnect could further limit their knowledge of the services and resources available to the veteran community. In establishing affinity groups for veterans of color, women veterans, LGBTQIA+ veterans, disabled veterans, and spouses and dependents of veterans, not only allows them to meet peers, but also connects them with services and resources they may not have known existed. Groups are free and open to the public, and will be held virtually via Zoom. The affinity groups will meet monthly with the exception of January, May, August, and December.
