We give people the chance to make a difference through community-driven volunteer programs and service-learning courses for university credit. Our service-learning courses will be unlike any course you’ve ever experienced. They includes all of the traditional learning that occur in any classroom and then deepens it, catalyzes it, and contextualizes it by connecting you and your professor with the local people, place, and issues that you’ve been reading about.
