From Levon Alldredge, Veterans Outreach Coordinator, Central Oregon Community College: “Kelly is an amazing support for both students and staff! He is very deserving of recognition for his contributions to our program.”

From Kelly Williams: “[My favorite part of being a Team Leader is] the day to day interactions with my fellow student veterans regardless of age, branch of service, or creed and promoting a safe environment that they may be missing since their departure from service. Our team restarted our Student Veterans of America Chapter after years of it being inactive. We also were able to attend the National Conference at the beginning of the year which has allowed us to network and gain a larger repertoire of information that we can pass on to our fellow student veterans that lets us better engage and advise them to make the transition to student life much easier.
