FEATURES
We are Better Together
Faculty members at USF have developed more than 30,000 partnerships with community organizations, including schools, industries, nonprofits, governments, the military and neighborhood groups. The projects they undertake address everything from health care to education to environmental concerns and benefit not only USF and its partners, but the general public as well. Enhancing and expanding these collaborative initiatives has been a priority throughout President Rhea Law’s tenure. “We are a major social and economic engine, and it’s critical that we continue building and nourishing our community partnerships, because we are better together,” she said during her inaugural address. Here’s a closer look at a few of the programs offered by USF and its community partners.
