Indiana Campus Compact has compiled helpful resources for adapting programs, teaching, and learning in the face of COVID-19. These resources are organized by topic on their COVID-19 and the Engaged Campus page.
ICC will launch weekly Virtual Conversations, beginning this Friday, March 27, for the remainder of the semester. These will be spaces to connect with colleagues and share what’s worked well and what hasn’t. You can sign up through the Engagement Portal.
Indiana Campus Compact also offers funding and recognition opportunities:
Funding Opportunities: High-Impact Community Engagement Practices and Strengthening Communities grant proposals are due on June 15. If you need grant support for summer programs, the deadline is May 11.

EMERGING LEADERS IN COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AWARD: Honors faculty and graduate teaching assistants from multiple Indiana Campus Compact partner institutions who are in the first seven years of their career and demonstrate leadership and innovation in advancing and shaping community engagement across the field.

(Ball State’s Delaina Boyd won in 2020!)
