At the session, we will be: giving an update on the problems that have been addressed, what’s outstanding and what we’re doing about it; helping people with problems they’re having and talking about where to go for help; asking for your input to make sure we are fully aware of what the needs are, what’s most urgent, and whether you’re getting the information you need.

We are reaching out to leading community partners to learn about your experiences with us, and to find out what we can do to support and enhance current and future collaborations.

As part of this effort, we are reaching out to leading community partners, suggested by campus faculty and staff, During the event we’ll be asking for your input on the following:

• Your perceptions of the university’s impact in the community and whether that is amplified through partnerships
• Your perceptions of the impact of community partnerships on the university: how should that impact be recognized and celebrated?
• The best ways to define the impact of community-university partnership
• The goals of partnership: what can the university do to make it easier to achieve your partnership goals?
• The best, least burdensome, ways to get feedback and engage in dialogue with partners

Community partnerships are vital to the mission of the University, and we are truly grateful for the energy, commitment and experience that community partners, along with faculty, staff, and students, bring to this work. We want to improve and expand our support for community-university partnerships like yours, and we believe that your knowledge and input is key to making that happen. We hope you will join us, and other campus and community leaders, for breakfast and a good conversation.
