Center for Research on Vermont
The Center for Research on Vermont (CRVT) was established in 1974 and collaborates with UVM’s network of scholars, experts, and community partners to create meaningful learning opportunities for students that also strengthen civic life in Vermont.
As Director, Holly oversees the Center’s work researching critical Vermont issues—climate change, renewable energy, transportation, economics, justice and equity, public health, and town governance—while connecting students with internships across the state.
CRVT also publishes a monthly research newsletter that compiles findings from Vermont researchers. Subscribe here!
