The University of San Francisco Community contributes thousands of service hours to nonprofits within the Bay Area and values community engagement as part of its students’ education. The McCarthy Center at USF offers community-engaged learning (CEL) programs and services that emphasize social justice, equity, and civic engagement. Students in the CEL program help to foster and sustain community partnerships in underserved communities, leading positive community change. Community-engaged learning courses are an integral part of the University’s undergraduate curriculum, providing academic coursework and community-based lessons about social justice issues. At USF all undergraduate students will take at least one community-engaged learning course.
