Community‐Guided Service: Leveraging Community Partnerships to Support Student‐Led Community Service
ABSTRACT Student‐led service requires powerful partnerships with governmental, business, and community organizations to ensure access, quality, and opportunity. Never has this been more important than in the shifting landscape of higher education characterized by rapid diversification of students, enrollment and financial challenges, and questions about the impact of education. This article reviews best practices in establishing community partnership that are sustainable, reciprocal, and that allow students to lead service efforts.
