Get proven strategies to serve and protect disabled veterans on your campus.

This year, thousands of combat veterans will end their tours of duty and enroll in college using their GI Bill benefits. They'll come to you with all of their dedication and determination … and many will also arrive with disabilities.

This 90-minute recorded audio confrence provides expert guidance to help you develop and implement policies to ensure your institution is prepared to address the multi-faceted challenges of educating former soldiers. You get practical advice on how to support them, along with specific accommodations to help those with the signature wounds of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, including traumatic brain injuries, post-traumatic stress disorder and amputations. You also learn:

• Important differences between today's combat veterans and those from previous wars
• How to provide assistance to student soldiers who don't self-identify "invisible" conditions, such as brain injuries and depression
• The unique problems disabled veterans face while transitioning to civilian life — and how those difficulties affect their college experience
• How your institution can tap into community resources to provide veterans with additional support
• Why using universal design in the classroom helps your vets — and benefits all of your students

This is a must-have resource for anyone who works with disabled students.
