The Community Partnership Summit is a full-day, interactive convening that brings together UCLA faculty, nonprofit and community leaders, and philanthropic partners to strengthen collaboration and advance shared goals. The Summit highlights innovative UCLA–community partnerships in research, teaching, and creative practice, while creating intentional space for dialogue, relationship-building, and future collaboration.


Designed to support faculty seeking to initiate or deepen community-engaged work, nonprofit organizations interested in meaningful partnerships with UCLA, and funders looking to support high-impact, community-centered initiatives, the program offers opportunities for learning, connection, and collective problem-solving.


Join us to:

  • Discover new and creative UCLA–community research partnership opportunities
