The Office of Community Partnerships has two advisory councils -  Faculty & Staff Advisory Council  and a Community Advisory Council.  Both serve as complementary bodies to coordinate and connect the various engagement activities occurring across campus and within the surrounding community. It also serves as a consultative body for issues pertaining to our public engagement agenda. It focuses on designing the campus infrastructure, policies, procedures and programs to institutionalize and enhance engagement in alignment with our urban-serving mission and in support of our strategic plan.
