Community Impact Hub

About the Hub

 


The “Hub” was specifically designed to facilitate a strategic and collaborative network involving community partners, faculty, staff, and students.

The “Hub” consists of five Impact Teams which work together using a “Collective Impact” model to identify common goals and outcomes.

Within the Impact Teams, faculty and students actively engage in initiatives aimed to support the region’s capacity-building and community improvement efforts. This includes integrating community projects into the college’s curriculum and engagement activities. Students are exposed to the real-world complexities and challenges faced by communities and receive mentoring from experienced community practitioners. In these mentored environments, students will have the opportunity to:

  • Apply their knowledge in practical settings
  • Learn how to navigate complex situations
  • Develop leadership skills
  • Explore potential life paths
  • Cultivate a deeper commitment to engaged citizenship.

For further information, you can explore the stories available on the website, and use the contact form to get in touch with The Hub.
