Community: Engaged

Loading
Community engagement is a core component of the university’s public affairs mission. By promoting a campus culture that inspires community engagement, the Center for Community Engagement (through its programs and resources) aspires to develop students who are active citizens of enhanced character, sensitive to the needs of community, competent and committed in their ability to contribute to a global society, and civil in their habits of thought, speech, and action. We:
Promote collaborations that build the capacities of our communities.
Connect academic goals with community-defined needs to create collective impact.
Convene dialogues that promote partnership development and are responsive to evolving community issues.
Provide workshops and consultations to student and community organizations
Model and train students to become citizen scholars who address societal concerns alongside community partners.
On behalf of our CCE staff, I am excited to work with you as a resource as you contribute your knowledge and experiences to your community and the broader society. Together, we will create positive social change as active citizens.
