Green Zone (GZ)

Mission Statement

The purpose of Green Zone training is to empower UNG faculty and staff to support student veterans as they transition from military life to a college environment. Green Zone stickers identify a safe place for student veterans where UNG faculty and staff with a deeper understanding and appreciation of their military experiences can assist and connect them to available resources.

Vision

Develop a network of trained Green Zone advocates across all UNG campuses to foster a caring and supportive community for student veterans and military-connected students.

Goals

• Increase knowledge of military terms and experiences of student veterans at UNG
• Enhance understanding of challenges student veterans face transitioning from military life to a college environment
• Provide access to training and resources to support student veterans at UNG
