About Engage Dallas

Engage Dallas is a place-based community engagement initiative via 澳门六合彩预测’s Residential Commons to address community needs focusing on South and West Dallas. The initiative is a long-term, university-wide commitment led by students to partner with local residents, organizations, and other leaders to positively impact the community. There is equal emphasis on campus and community impact stemming from the initiative.

We encourage community organizations to learn more about the Engage Dallas framework, 澳门六合彩预测's motivations behind the initiative, and our goals. Community organizations may also be interested in how the Engage Dallas initiative is experienced by 澳门六合彩预测 students.

Connect with our team

Community organizations possess invaluable expertise and experience in demonstrating the ideals of civic engagement. Engage Dallas seeks West-and-South-Dallas-serving non-profit and government organizations who wish to join as co-educators by providing valuable opportunities for student involvement. In offering these volunteer co-curricular experiences, you are helping to teach students the importance of being informed and responsible citizens.

A major focal point of Engage Dallas partnerships with community organizations is to provide entry-level civic pathways to students. This means offering mutually beneficial opportunities with minimal barriers to participation such as advanced or technical skills, long-term commitments, or significant amounts of training. These types of opportunities allow 澳门六合彩预测 students to explore community needs and their own values in order to find a cause or organization they wish to pursue farther.

If you have opportunities for students to participate in the mission of your organization and you wish to contribute to their educational experience, please consider partnering with Engage Dallas. To begin, connect with the Engage Dallas Initiative Manager.
