Veterans Alliance Outreach Program (10 hrs.)

  • Many veterans are eligible for certain services/care following their duty but currently admission numbers are low.
  • The Veteran’s Alliance is looking to create an outreach program using a personal website/social media to contact local veterans
  • You’d be in charge of creating/updating a website in a team of 10
  • Look, you didn’t need to specifically create the website just yet. Instead, I need you to help me gather information that will eventually go on the website. For example, I may ask of you to go to a specific Post within the township and gather information about it. Another option would be to create a list of “Activities” that the Veteran’s Alliance partakes in. See me and we can talk about it. Don’t be intimidated by this one
  • If interested, see Mr. Biri or Mr. John Eberhardt (see me for his contact info)
