EHD Community

I love the community within UVA EHD! Through my cohort I have met some of my best friends and I am truly grateful. The staff and faculty within EHD are also amazing. I appreciate how EHD faculty take the time to know their students on a more personal level and really care about the wellbeing of their students.
