I am posting my question here, since it appears the v2.2 ID forum is closed for new comments.
I have a v2.2 LEED-NC Campus project working on the final construction submission. It is a mental health facility that has 6 buildings, one of which is dedicated to children. We were already awarded the School as a Teaching Tool ID point, which is being utilized in the children's facility.
For the remaining buildings, all of which work with adults at varying levels of social function and have associated staff and visitors, do you think it would be acceptable to use a separate Green Education ID credit to provide materials for the different audience? I understand this is considered too similar for typical projects, but I feel our case is a little different.
This is our final Construction submission, so we will not get another chance to attempt the final ID credit. It could make the difference between Silver and Gold for all of the buildings. Please let me know of your opinions. Thanks!

Emily, you can still post on our v2.2 forums—not sure whey they appeared to be closed.For your question, I would defer to anyone who might have experience in a similar situation, but my sense is that they are different enough topics to earn both credits. Given the stakes I wouldn't hesitate to contact GBCI and see if they would give you a quick opinion without going through the appeals or CIR process.

Thanks, Tristan!
Yeah, I'm not sure why the v2.2 ID page looked different, but it wasn't giving me any of the boxes to add a new comment, unless I wanted to respond to an already-exisitng post. I made sure I was logged in, and tried it on multi-page and single page view. Weird!
