Berkman Scholars’ success

Spring 2026 saw an 82% engagement rate, the highest since program inception in 2023. Secured grant funding to grow from three to four Berkman Scholars per semester.

“The SVRC has benefited me tremendously during my time at UGA. I can recall struggling to find a community and purposeful way to serve prior to coming to school. Through the events sponsored by the Student Veterans Association, I have thankfully been able to join a community of like-minded people much like I had during my time serving in the military. The SVRC has also given me the opportunity to pay it forward through my work at the service desk where I am able to help direct veterans to the resources they need as they transition from the military to civilian life.”
