Center for Public Service

Who We Are

 

The Center for Public Service supports the development of curricular programs that link community service to academic coursework.  The goals of the Center are to contribute to the intellectual development, sense of social responsibility, and active citizenship of students.  These goals are pursued by engaging students in meaningful and academically sound service experiences.

 

Stop by the office during our posted hours or send us an email at mckcps@mckendree.edu.
