The CLC Veterans Resource Center (VRC) provides information and support to Veterans, military members, and their families and community members. The Center is staffed by college staff, student employees, and volunteers and is open daily from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm and other times by arrangement.

The goal of the Center is to provide a welcoming environment for all who visit. The Center has, or can locate, information about veterans services, financial resources, military education benefits, scholarships, veteran and family support activities. The Center refers individuals to appropriate campus and community service providers. The Center also serves as an advocate for veterans and their families who are students and as a training and education resource.

The Center encourages students, or prospective students, who are veterans, military members or family members to contact the Center to be put in contact with a Veterans Regional Coordinator for information on their potential benefits. In addition, they can also arrange for priority registration (an opportunity to register early).

The Brainerd VRC is located in Room C226 and Room E114 on the Staples Campus.
