The Community College National Center For Community Engagement
and
Monroe Community College
Invite you to a day long workshop to address an issue critical to our lives and our community
Service-Learning, Civic Engagement,
Homeland Security and Domestic Preparedness Workshop
What is the linkage between service-learning and civic engagement and leading others to respond
appropriately during a crisis? How do schools, higher education institutions, government entities and
community based organizations prepare for and respond to emergencies, such as floods, earthquakes,
blackouts, homebound patients, heat waves and other problems that impact our city?
A team of nationally recognized trainers will lead you through a day of dialogue and active participation to
address Service-Learning, Civic Engagement, Homeland Security and Domestic Preparedness. This will
be a time to develop appropriate responses through issue forums, partnerships and community building.
