Rooted in student engagement and involvement, our programs seek to provide transformational and intersectional experiences allowing students to enrich our campus community and beyond.

In 2023-2024, the Outreach team participated in over 65 unique programs, events, and collaborations spanning across 25+ distinct colleges, units, organizations, and external partners. Many of the collaborations included new partnerships including several campus tours for visiting college and pre-college students, tabling events, presentations for campus faculty, and trainings for newly-hired Illinois staff and faculty. The Jeffries Center continues to grow our outreach network and strategic partnerships through continued participation and leadership in the campus community and beyond.
