Community-Campus Partnerships for Health's 9th Conference
Walking the Talk: Achieving the Promise of Authentic Partnerships
May 31 - June 3, 2006
Minneapolis, Minnesota USA

CCPH Conference Website Coming Soon!

With the remarkable expansion of interest and investment in community-campus partnerships, the time is right to take a critical look at these partnerships in all of their iterations and ask (and answer) key questions about where we are now, where we are going and where we need to be. Where is the community in community-campus partnerships? How do we fully realize authentic partnerships? What are the barriers and challenges getting in our way? How do we overcome these, individually and collectively?

CCPH's 9th conference promises to address these questions and more as we create a vision for the future of community-campus partnerships as a strategy for social justice. Gain knowledge and skills in service-learning, community-based participatory research, community and economic development, and more!

It's not too early to start planning to participate!
