Program participation is open to community residents that live in the neighborhoods surrounding our campus, including ClevelandWards 6, 7 and 9 and the city of East Cleveland.
Neighborhood Advisory Council
Community Engagement Activity
The CWRU Neighborhood Advisory Council (NAC) serves as the community representative to University leadership and advises on relevant issues, programs and projects that significantly impact people in East Cleveland and Cleveland neighborhoods around campus. The NAC is a 20-member body composed of community members, students, and representatives from Case Western Reserve and local community organizations.
Nourishing Neighborhoods, Empowering Communities
Community Engagement Activity
Working together to root and grow a local food system that works for all.
The Nourishing Power Network is part of a research study that is testing ways to transform food systems by bridging community power with organizational power to spark and expand food justice initiatives led by the community.
What do we hope to learn together through the Network?
- If we cultivate welcoming spaces for community building, will it spark and expand food justice in Greater Cleveland?
- If we support community-led action with financial and technical resources, will it tip the food system to fairness?
- If we root and grow community ownership of local food systems, will it promote equity, vibrancy, and holistic health?
