About PAVE

Many veterans will encounter only expected, short term issues throughout the transition from military to campus life. But some may face more serious challenges, including academic concerns, family issues, financial struggles, or emotional issues such as depression or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PAVE is there to provide support to these student veterans, connect them with useful resources, and help them chart a path to personal and academic success.

Do You Need Assistance?

If you are a student veteran at one of our participating campuses, please call us at 1-822-855-PAVE (7283) to be paired with a Peer Advisor on your campus. Veteran Peer Advisors are trained to help you find resources for a variety of readjustment issues, both on and off campus.

The PAVE Program cannot provide an immediate response in an emergency. If you are a veteran in emotional distress or thinking about suicide, call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at (800) 273-TALK (8255) and press 1 for veterans. If this is an emergency, call 911.

Volunteer

No one can be a better source of support to a student veteran than a peer who’s been there. If you have a passion for helping fellow veterans, are a good communicator, and are willing to donate your time to an amazing cause, the PAVE Program is looking for you. If you are ready to help your veteran peers on campus, please apply to be a Peer Advisor with the PAVE Program!
