The Dr. Katherine S. Conway-Turner Office of Civic and Community Engagement will be holding virtual and in-person events for our community partners in January.
Our New Community Partner Orientation—scheduled for Monday, January 6, at 11:00 a.m.—is for new community partners who are interested in working with Buffalo State students, faculty, and staff through volunteerism and community-engaged learning courses.
Our Bi-Annual Community Partner Meetings provide opportunities for community partners to meet staff and faculty to discuss specific projects for the upcoming semester. The in-person meeting will take place on Wednesday, January 8, at 1:00 p.m. at the Burchfield Penney Art Center, and the virtual meeting will take place on Thursday, January 9, at 10:00 a.m. The content of these meetings is identical, but different community partners will be in attendance at each meeting. Once again, the Burchfield Penney team is kindly inviting the campus community and community partners to participate in 30-minute tours before and after the in-person meeting on Wednesday (at 12:00 and 2:45 p.m.).
If you are interested in meeting directly with our community partners to talk about community-engaged research, volunteer opportunities, or community-engaged partnerships for your spring 2025 courses (or later), please visit the community partner section of our website to learn more and sign up for one or more meetings.
Additional information, including the Teams link for virtual attendees, will be sent to registrants closer to each event. You can also email the office or call (716) 878-3919 for more information.
