Further Opportunities for Emory Community Building Outreach

Emory’s Office of Civic and Community Engagement is the home for the CBC Fellows program, but also runs other initiatives with heavy community engagement. If you are interested in hands-on work in local public schools, teaching debate to elementary and middle schools, or working with new Americans on their language skills, CCE has a program for you. Please visit the CCE main website here for more information or stop by our office in the Emory Student Center S330 to talk with any of our staff.
