The Community Engagement Committee (CEC) consists of eight faculty members who represent the breadth of academic programs (four from PSU, four from OHSU) and three students representing doctoral, master’s, and baccalaureate programs.
The CEC provides support, guidance, and recommendations on interactions with members of the community.
Key responsibilities of the CEC include:
Develop and maintain guidelines for engaging with, and supporting the needs of, our communities, prioritizing historically oppressed and marginalized communities.
Develop and maintain mechanisms of accountability to ensure the School is centering and elevating these communities.
Develop and maintain guidelines for community engagement competencies in our curricula.
Develop and maintain opportunities for community partners to share their expertise.
Determine and disseminate best practices for faculty working with communities.
Work with the Provosts’ offices from both universities through the AD/SJ to develop and maintain guidelines for compensation of community members who support the School.
