The vision of the program in Community Well-Being (CWB) is to be a hub for engaged scholarship in community well-being and social change.
The mission of the program is to produce community-engaged scholars who promote individual, relational, and collective well-being through community-based research and action.
The program in CWB trains community-engaged action-researchers committed to promoting social justice through rigorous theoretical analysis and community-based research. The program is grounded in the discipline of community psychology, and focuses on community-engaged scholarship that involves the researcher in a mutually beneficial partnership with the community. The program prepares scholars for careers in academia, research, and public policy.
