SUMMARY:Veterans Resource Fair
DESCRIPTION:Skyline College Hosts:\n\nThe Second Annual Veterans Resource Fair\n\n\n\nMany veterans don't realize all of the services available to them to help with education\, healthcare\, finances\, housing\, childcare and other life challenges. Skyline College hopes to help with a free\, public event where vets can make helpful connections all in one convenient place. \n\n\n\nThe event is free and open to all San Mateo County Community College District students\, faculty\, staff and the general public. \n\n\n\n"This event is a prime example of the ways that Skyline College and local veteran agencies are collaborating to honor and support our service men and women\," said Gina Ciardella\, program services coordinator for the Veterans Resource Center at Skyline College. "We know how hard it can be to navigate the services available to veterans\, so this is a way to make it easier\, develop an ongoing sense of community and build a network of support." \n\n \n\nThis event will offer opportunities for veterans and their family members to connect with veterans support agencies\, Skyline College campus programs\, and other community resources geared towards veterans and dependents from around the Bay Area. Attendees will also have access to onsite VA Healthcare enrollment opportunities.\n\n\n\nHere is a partial list of participating organizations (subject to change): \n\n \n\n	SF VA and Palo Alto Medical Centers\n	Employment Development Department\n	San Mateo County Veterans Service Office\n	CalVet\n	Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (VR&E) Program\n	Swords to Plowshares\n	Service 2 School\n	NPower\n	AMVETS Career Center/American Legion Veterans Success Center\n	Peninsula Vet Center\n	Department of Rehabilitation\n	LifeMoves\n	American Legion Post 409\n	VetsConnect @ the Library\n\n \n\nSkyline College Resources \n\n\n	SparkPoint: One-stop financial education and coaching\n	The Learning Center: Offers tutoring\, workshops and other academic services\n	TRiO: Academic support\, transfer counseling\, financial aid and scholarships assistance\n	Career Services Center: Career and job-hunting support \n	EOPS|CARE|Calworks: Academic\, career and personal coaching \n	Disability Resource Center: Accommodations\, counseling and support services for students with documented disabilities \n	Veterans Resource Center: Connects veterans and dependents to appropriate campus and community services\, assists with access to educational benefits and helps support a successful transition to college life\n	Skyline Student Veterans of America: provides a community for student veterans\, military-affiliated students\, and their allies through academic and personal support\, access to benefits\, and peer to peer networking.\n\n\n\n \n\nMore than 30 service providers from San Francisco and San Mateo County will be in attendance.
