University-Community Research Partnerships: A New Approach

http://www.compact.org/media/UCRP_report.pdf

This report highlights the results of a national initiative to build partnerships between community-based organizations and university faculty in nineteen sites sponsored by the Pew Partnership for Civic Change.

My own service-learning experience helped me to change my undergraduate major to social work. As a student worker with the program, I gained so many skills that helped me to be successful as a social worker and change agent after graduation. Now I help student workers develop these same skills and find the same passion for creating positive change that I have felt."

-Kim Jensen, Assistant Service-Learning Administrator, Marquette University
