Veteran’s Oral History Collection Kit

Kate Madaus

Agency: Eskaton Village, Carmichael ~ Resident Activities Services

Supervisor: Tristin Benjamin

 

The goal of this project was to create a kit in order for others to gather the oral histories of veterans receiving services through the agency Eskaton. The gathered oral histories from the elders would be collected and sent to Veterans’ History Project in Washington D.C. where permanently archived for future generations. The mission of Eskaton is “to enhance the quality of life of seniors through innovative health and housing, and social services”. Participation in this project would allow Eskaton to provide a social service to seniors in order for their experiences to be preserved and future generations to experience and honor elder veterans. The kit will be structured to be user friendly as so to encourage the use of this tool to participate the Veterans’ History Project.

Presented at 12:15pm in El Dorado Hall 1039 on May 15, 2009
