The mission of the VET NET Ally Program is to:

  • establish a network of visible Allies to provide support, information, and assistance for service members and veterans,
  • provide service members and veterans with comfortable access to trustworthy, knowledgeable, and sensitive people who can provide a safe and non-discriminatory environment,
  • provide an opportunity for OCC faculty and staff to demonstrate support for service members and veterans,
  • provide all students on campus an opportunity to respond to instances of discrimination or harassment based on perceived or self-reported status as a service member or veteran,
  • educate members of the college community about the needs and concerns of service members and veterans,
  • assist college personnel in understanding that discrimination based on status as a service member or veteran is harmful to the campus environment for all,
  • foster a campus atmosphere that supports the academic freedom and professional, personal and social success of service members and veterans; and
  • advance the college’s progress towards a campus that discourages discrimination and openly celebrates diversity.
