About the Center for Service Learning and Volunteerism
The Center for Service Learning and Volunteerism offers a variety of volunteer opportunities, community based programs and training, and leadership training programs designed to complement your academic experiences. Whether you're brand new to campus or an experienced student leader, you are sure to find a program that meets your needs.
The CSLV's purpose is to serve as liaison between faculty, students, and community agencies. We offer support, resources, and placement opportunities to enable students to experience a culture of learning in a real-world setting, in addition to their University classrooms. During these learning experiences, there is a focus on civic engagement and social responsibility. This ultimately ensures reciprocity, as all participants (students, faculty, and community partners) benefit from each other.
We also offer development to faculty interested in the integration of service learning experiences through the Engaged Scholarship Network, along with ongoing instructional and mentoring support for the university community.
Take some time to explore our pages and find the type of involvement that's right for you. Our goal is to provide leadership development training and community service opportunities that empower students to become active leaders and engaged citizens.
