    I think we are starting to see the generation of m any great ideas. I think people are getting it. There is a lot any one of us could do — the trick is believing that and moving forward.

    I have suggested that Capella could be a great place to centralize information and helping vets and families find places to get help and support. You are seeing some great ideas - in the initial posting here you saw the recommendation as to how mental health students might reach out to the vets. I think that’s a great idea, and I think its important for these students to learn from the vets. What were their experiences; how do they think they were affected; what would be helpful to them; what is not helpful?

    We have some insight into these issues from the surveys, but we need to know more and we need to reach out and learn from them.
