About University Outreach

University Outreach facilitates learning and engagement through thoughtful
collaboration and partnerships with campus and community.

We are guided by the following values:

Justice and Fairness– Providing equal access to knowledge and resources,
acknowledging injustice, engaging the whole community, and sharing power

Healthy Relationships– Increasing direct access to resources and services,
providing learning and inspiration, respecting long-term relationships built on
shared experiences and trust, protecting emotional and spiritual values

Community Building– Creating public space for community engagement, uniting
and empowering our communities, and building and supporting grassroots networks

Economic Vitality– Ensuring long-term economic vitality and promoting
sustainable livelihoods

Being in Service– Engaging with existing community-based organizations,
sharing decision-making authority with the community, teaching cultural competency,
and building trust and authentic relationships
