Pipelines & Pathways
Turning Connections into Careers
Pipelines & Pathways is an initiative of President Ryan’s Council on UVA - Community Partnerships and was developed by the President’s working group on local jobs and wages. The goal of the program is to increase the number of individuals residing in underserved communities in the Charlottesville region who are hired by the University, decrease the rate of turnover, and increase the number of Academic Division and University Medical Center employees who advance up the career ladder.
