CAMPUS PROGRAMS AND SERVICES COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS & EVENTS Regular programming of events, training, and workshops is a large part of how OCP supports the campus community. Our role in these events depends on the type of activity and the level of support (staffing and/or financial) needed. To date, OCP has either hosted, supported, or sponsored over 15 different online/virtual activities and partnered with over 25 different campus and community partners. In addition to hosting campus virtual events, we have identified and promoted multiple webinars, events, and training which were hosted by external organizations. Together, these workshops and events aimed to provide faculty and staff needed professional opportunities to advance their ability to effectively partner with others, especially in the face of significant social and public health challenges.
FACULTY FELLOWS PROGRAM The Faculty Fellows Program provides funding up to $10,000 to each cohort of faculty who seek to develop and integrate publicly engaged activities with teaching or scholarships, for the public good. One of the primary goals is to establish communities of practice that focus on existing and new partnerships and actively include community partners in their ongoing co-learning and co-production processes. In 2022, the following three new fellowship awards were granted for the January–December 2022 time period.
