He urged collaboration with the National Council on Community Services for Community Colleges and highlighted programs from two year degrees to short term training in fields like urban planning computer technology and allied health. He warned governmental support alone is insufficient and urged local and private sector cooperation to help veterans reintegrate into civilian life.
