Over the past academic year, we’ve expanded Community Connect UW exponentially:

- 30+ Civic Health Scorecard badges awarded through CCUW to NextGen leaders
- Co-curricular programs such as Connected Huskies, Othello-UW Commons and Riverways
- Innovative uses by such groups as Latino Leadership Initiative, UW Medicine’s Office of Health Care Equity, and UW Tacoma’s School Psychology Field Supervisors Community of Practice
- The new roadmap to assess community engagement at the UW is informing Community Connect UW data architecture and use
By the Numbers:
- >11,000 students, faculty, staff across 3 campuses
- >450 community partners now sharing opportunities
- >1600 UW positions, events and opportunities
- >41,000 “impacts” of hours or deliverables
We continue to build demos, guides and step-by-step instructions as users and uses expand:
- CCUW and GivePulse training – this Google folder has expanded to include more demos
- Canvas integration for community-engaged courses – explore these specific guides and videos

By fall 2026 we aim to:
- Align a coherent tri-campus partner and student experience in CCUW
- Implement a strategy for co-curricular activities, with such programs as UW Tacoma’s Strickland Fellowship
- Bring together data from CCUW, UW Tacoma’s Collaboratory, and other sources into a solid reporting dashboard with metrics that are meaningful to UW and partners.
