Community responsibility is at the core of education.
Service-Learning directly supports that belief through projects that deepen and contextualize course learning outcomes to benefit community organizations. Additionally, Service-Learning supports and provides resources for hands-on individual and student group volunteering throughout the greater Portland region.
FOR FACULTY, service-learning is an opportunity to achieve course outcomes while benefiting the community.
FOR STUDENTS, service-learning is a chance to deepen their knowledge and skills, connect learning to personal passion or professional dreams, while strengthening community awareness and civic engagement. (To better understand the course designation in the schedule, please see the Courses page for more information.)
FOR OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS, service-learning is the creation of a mutually beneficial relationship with Portland Community College that fills a critical need within society.
The Office of Service-Learning supports the Mission, Vision, and Values of PCC and we serve everyone under the PCC umbrella throughout the district.
