Harrisburg student veterans seek to connect their peers with resources

When Andrew Butch was forced to retire from the U.S. Army in 2017, he felt like the rug had been pulled out from under him. Now a graduate student earning his master’s degree in applied clinical psychology, Butch and others on campus are working to better connect student veterans with the resources and support they need.
