- UW Bothell’s Connected Huskies program piloting on CCUW
- Multi-quarter community partner field supervisors’ community of practice at UW Tacoma
- Othello-UW Commons, Riverways, and Latino Leadership Initiative programs beginning to adopt CCUW
Additionally, the new roadmap to assess community engagement at the UW is informing Community Connect UW data architecture and use.
Our demos, guides and step-by-step instructions have expanded this quarter:
