My goal for the VERG is to inspire and create a positive atmosphere for those with whom we engage in thoughtful and impactful conversations." Jeff Espina, MBA, Vice President, Clinical Services

“I am a part of the Employee Resource Group for military veterans because I think it's important that fellow vets can meet to discuss shared experiences and any struggles we may have, and to create a space where new employees, who are also veterans, can feel welcome and valued for their service.” Gordon S. Blanchard, Director of Campus Safety, Employee Diversity and Inclusion Committee
