Our mission is to facilitate the translation of public health science into policy and change through meaningful stakeholder partnerships and effective civic engagement. We provide a platform for students to discover their passion and engage with the campus and their communities, inclusive of faculty and staff engagement.
PHACE focuses on four foundational pillars:
- Innovation: creating new and exciting ways for students and the local community to get involved with civic engagement.
- Community Service &Collaboration: volunteering in the community through partnerships with other organizations.
- Education: keeping the student body informed and educated on current events and the latest concerns in public health.
- Leadership: facilitating opportunities for students to develop leadership skills, professional networking, career development, research, and internships.
