Welcome to the New York Campus Compact website!

The New York Campus Compact (NYCC) is a membership association of  college and university presidents committed to promoting “active citizenship as an aim of higher education.”  Two-year and four year campuses, public and independent institutions, from Buffalo to New York City, Southern Tier to the North Country, have joined to promote civic engagement, campus/community partnerships and service-learning. 

Key activities are:

• technical assistance through conferences, publications, consultation;
• grants to members;
• support for student volunteerism;
• recognition of accomplishments in public service collaborations with sister organizations;
• public policy development

The mission of the New York Campus Compact is to promote active citizenship as an aim of higher education.  In a statewide leadership role,  NYCC will strengthen the capacity of member institutions to partner with their communities; increase student involvement in academic and co-curricular public service; advance engaged scholarship; and cultivate the knowledge, values, and skills of civic responsibility and democratic participation.
