Founded in 2005, the Center for Community Engagement (formerly Rochester Center for Community Leadership) is a unit in the Office of the Dean of Students.
The Center for Community Engagement (CCE) fosters collaborative leadership among students, faculty, staff, and community partners to discover transformative solutions and create equitable social change in the Rochester community and beyond. The University's Meliora Values are prevalent in all that we do.
We believe communities are strongest when their members are active and engaged in community service, civic leadership, and democratic processes. That’s why we start with you. When you better yourself, you also better your community; and when you better your community, you also better yourself.
