Student Veterans of America - UAB Chapter
The UAB Student Veterans of America (SVA) chapter is a peer-led organization dedicated to advocacy, community service, and community building for military-connected students at UAB. Big on building belonging, SVA creates a space where military-connected students can find peer support, give back, and lead.
