Family Involvement
UHV Family Involvement ties students’ families to resources aimed at helping students succeed academically and socially while in school. UHV also offers its students and their families the opportunity to connect with the university and its faculty and staff through an event called UHV Family Weekend, which is held each academic year. This event provides families ample interaction with UHV faculty and staff, university programs and Athletics in an effort to build a sense of pride and support for UHV students.
