Veterans get a New Start
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if New Start is right for me?
New Start services are provided by the Department of Occupational Therapy’s highly recognized Center for Community Partnerships (CCP) at Colorado State University. New Start offers culturally competent support for military and veteran students. Our participants engage in:
- A faster and more effective transition to higher education and purposeful community reintegration.
- Translation of military-based strengths into academic, career, and personal success.
- The ability to identify, express, and meet personal needs and goals.

Is there a fee for services?
No, all New Start services are free. The New Start program is funded by charitable donations, allowing services to be offered at no cost.
New Start’s primary benefactor is Dr. Dennis Repp, a distinguished CSU alumnus and military veteran with a passion for supporting veterans in making a New Start after military service. We can’t thank him enough for inspiring this active and vital program here at CSU.
