The Chez Veterans Center continues to grow programming to address students ever-changing needs.  With our partnership with the VA Illiana Health Care System, we hosted two programs for students and community members. 

The SAVE Training provided an in-person course teaching attendees how to support a Veteran who may be in crisis or having suicidal thoughts.  This training was open to students, University of Illinois staff, and community members and remains a priority training for the Center in supports of suicide prevention.  Join this semesters training on 2/21/2024 and register by clicking this link. https://forms.illinois.edu/sec/1816954808

The Advanced Care Planning Group was hosted regularly and provided outreach for attendees interested in discussing and identifying their “next step” to planning for future health care needs.  We look forward to continuing to offer this regularly group in the Spring Semester to students and community members, with upcoming groups on 2/15/2024, 3/21/2024, and 4/18/2024 from 11-12pm at the Chez Veterans Center.
