Community Partner Guide to Service Learning:
Overview & Table of Contents
This Community Partner guide was created by the Office of Community-University Partnerships and Service-Learning (CUPS) at The University of Vermont in collaboration with community members and organizations. It is meant to serve as an introductory and ongoing resource to community agencies that are interested in becoming partners in service-learning. As a guiding tool it is designed to be brief and informative while offering links to more extensive information.
We encourage community partners to contact the CUPS office as they decide to become a partner to a service-learning course at UVM. Our office looks forward to fostering community partnerships with community agencies and UVM faculty and staff to enhance the educational experience of the students.
