Transitioning Veterans Collaborative 2011-2012 Recap:

The Transitioning Veterans Collaborative involved many levels of partnerships, including GW Student Veterans, the Office of Veterans Services, and ISCOPES students, many of whom are also veterans. After surveying current student veterans, the team ultimately decided to put together a welcome packet of resources particularly geared toward successfully transitioning from military service to student and civilian life. The final welcome packet included information about the following: maps (of Foggy Bottom and Mount Vernon Campus), Office of Veteran Affairs, GW Student Veteran Organization, student academic success, transportation in DC, off-campus housing, Tri-Care providers, dental health, mental health, military family resources, and social activities in DC. The team also helped coordinate two inaugural activities on navigating the VA Medical System and Effective Resume Writing at the new campus Veteran’s Center.

Regardless of team placement, all ISCOPES Participants should be aware of the following:

1. Roles and Responsibilities
2. ISCOPES Program Schedule*

*Service activities may take place at various locations throughout the District, but the team's on-site meetings (see ISCOPES Program Schedule for dates) will take place at this location:
