Abstract
This presentation will provide participants with the foundational knowledge of the Embedded Behavioral Health Model (EBH) and translate it to a university setting. We will discuss its history in the DOD and how utilizing it in a university setting can increase academic success, retention, and graduation rates, as well as reduce stigma and assist with early intervention. This model provides an evidence-based technique used to amplify and unify student veteran voices and connect them with resources that increase their success.
