Campus Veteran Resource Center Grant

Campus Veteran Resource Center Grant Overview

The Campus Veteran Resource Center Grant is administered by the Oregon Department of Veterans' Affairs to expand and enhance Campus Veteran Resource Centers on the campuses of Oregon community colleges and public universities.

The purpose of the Campus Veteran Resource Center Grant (“CVRC Grant”) is to augment existing campus programs that help veterans successfully transition from military service to college life, succeed in college and complete educational goals, and then transition from college to the workforce and the community.
