Veterans Services Resource Center
Joel Archuleta
Veterans Services Specialist
The Veterans Services Center is a centralized, on-site source of support and access to veterans-specific information and resources.
Our Veterans Services teams are staffed by veterans and skilled professionals… so we understand the unique challenges our returning veterans face when making the transition from active duty military to college life. Not only do we provide one-on-one services, our Veterans Services Centers also provide a welcoming environment where veterans can meet and network with other veterans, relax, or study. We encourage you to take advantage of the services we provide and look forward to welcoming you to Olive-Harvey College!
