About
CHAPTER PROGRAM-TEACHERS VOLUNTEER AS VHP CHAPTER ADVISORS AT THEIR SCHOOLS, TO HELP FACILITATE OUR AFTER-SCHOOL ORAL HISTORY PROJECT-BASED LEARNING. VHP STUDENTS CONDUCT AND VIDEOTAPE VETERAN INTERVIEWS, WRITE ESSAYS DOCUMENTING THE VETERANS' STORY, CONDUCT RELATED HISTORICAL RESEARCH, AND OBTAIN THE VETERANS' COPY APPROVAL. CHAPTERS UTILIZE DESIGN SOFTWARE AND CLOUD TECHNOLOGY TO ASSEMBLE THE FINAL ESSAYS AND COLLABORATE IN THE PUBLICATION OF REGIONAL EDITIONS OF OUR HARDBOUND BOOK, SINCE YOU ASKED (SYA). THE VIDEOTAPED INTERVIEWS AND THE BOOKS BECOME A PERMANENT CONTRIBUTION TO THE LIBARY OF CONGRESS. CHAPTERS ENGAGE WITH THEIR COMMUNITIES IN THE ORGANIZATION OF REGIONAL COMMUNITY EVENTS TO HONOR THEIR VETERAN PARTNERS AND PRESENT THE COMPLETED SYA BOOK FOR SIGNING AND DISTRIBUTION. EACH YEAR TWO-THIRDS OF VETERANS DESCRIBE THE PROCESS AS "HEALING- AND "CATHARTIC", AND A QUARTER ARE ABLE TO SHARE THEIR STORY FOR THE FIRST TIME, WHICH OPENS AN ONGOING DIALOGUE WITH THEIR FAMILIY ABOUT THEIR MILITARY EXPERIENCE. STUDENTS ARE PREPARED FOR CONTINUED ACADEMIC AND PROFESSIONAL SUCCESS THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT OF LISTENING, WRITING, CRITICAL THINKING, COLLABORATION, TECHNOLOGY AND PUBLIC SPEAKING SKILLS. ONE HUNDRED PERCENT OF PARTICIPATING STUDENTS GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL AND NINETY-FIVE PERCENT CONTINUE ON TO COLLEGE OR MILITARY SERVICE.
