Summary
St. Luke’s Health System has established its first employee resource group (ERG) for veterans, aimed at fostering community among the organization’s approximately 600 veteran employees. Launched in October, the Veterans ERG quickly grew to 160 members, demonstrating significant interest and need for peer support. The group focuses on recruitment, engagement, and community service, already participating in initiatives like a suicide awareness event in Magic Valley. Led by Austin Overacre, a veteran with 12 years of Army service, the ERG is designed to facilitate social events and enhance community involvement based on members' geographical locations.
