Things to Know: Working with Sac State

Most classes plan at least one semester ahead, so the activity can be included in the course syllabus. This means planning at least six months in advance. In general, courses follow this timeline:

  • Projects for the Fall semester: Contact by April
  • Projects for the Spring semester: Contact by September

Service Learning and Academic Internship agreements for community partners must be completed by Sac State faculty or staff.

Partner with the Community Engagement Center

The Community Engagement Center works closely with local non-profits, schools, business and government agencies to build long-term, sustainable partnerships that promote service and engagement for Sacramento State students, faculty, staff and alumni.

Network Café

Network Café provides an opportunity for organizations to network, give interesting presentations, and exchange information in a relaxed environment with a meal.

Service Learning and Community Service Partnerships

Community partners complement faculty teaching by linking community-based experiences with classroom-based learning.

Service learning students can work with your organization in terms of direct service (e.g. tutoring, mentoring, etc.) and/or through project-based learning (e.g. the development of databases or websites, writing a grant or a marketing plan, etc.).

Volunteer Programs

The Community Engagement Center recruits Sac State students, faculty, staff and alumni in various community service activities throughout the year.

Day of Service Events:

Day of Service events offer students an opportunity to volunteer with campus and community organizations throughout the academic school year. These enriching events are expanded during Alternative Break for a week long service project at different locations in the community.

Semester of Service:

Semester of Service connects students with a partnering community or campus organization for 11 weeks. Our SoS opportunities allow students to gain a deeper understanding of the value of the service they are giving their time and energy to, and the lasting impact it can have on others.

Please note, we do not recruit volunteers to participate in the following:

  • Endorsement of public officials/candidates
  • Political fundraisers/events
  • For profit companies

If you are an organization that needs volunteers for a community service event, please fill out our Non-profit Volunteer Request Form or contact our Volunteer and Program Specialist, Brooke Major, at brooke.major@parkviewhousebb.com.
