The 88th Regional Support Command hosted 432 attendees from 24 states at a Yellow Ribbon Event in Schaumburg, Illinois, January 9-11. The Yellow Ribbon Program provides deploying and recently deployed Army Reserve Soldiers and their Families with information, services, referrals, and outreach opportunities throughout the entire deployment cycle.
John Venner, newly appointed program manager, spoke at the event.
“Anything we can help them do to get their feet back on the ground, reestablish and make their relationships stronger and help make them a better citizen, that’s what we are all about, and that’s what we work hard to do,” said Venner.
This was Venner’s first event as Yellow Ribbon Program Manager.
In addition to the structured event training, more than 40 Yellow Ribbon Community Partners were on hand to offer assistance and information to participants. These included representatives of multiple military resources as well as employers, colleges and Army Reserve Ambassadors.
