Three primary goals for community engagement

  • Define community using a multifactorial approach (e.g., geographic region, age, race/ethnicity, foreign born vs. U.S. born, income, medically underserved, etc.)
  • Establish expectations related to community engagement in all mission areas
  • Provide administrative services and infrastructure to support the community engagement mission
  • Consider community engagement scholarship in faculty advancement and compensation
  • Provide financial incentives to departments to encourage community-partnered research and cross-departmental collaboration in community engagement efforts
  • Build capacity to ensure best practices in community engagement initiatives in all mission areas and across UCLA
