“Without community service, we would not have a strong quality of life. It’s important to the person who serves as well as the recipient. It’s the way in which we ourselves grow and develop.”

Dorothy Height

Defining Community Engagement

Many describe community engagement as a collaboration between individuals and/or institutions of higher education and their larger communities (local, regional/state, national, global) for the mutually beneficial exchange of knowledge and resources in a context of partnership and reciprocity. 

In the context of the NASCE, students are asked to includeany activity in which they participate with or assist members of community(ies) to address unmet human needs including service and community engagement through internships, courses, work-study, co-ops, or on their own.      

Areas of Need

The NASCE instrument asks students about their participation in community engagement across eight areas of human need.
