Boston College Community Engagement Groups are volunteer, employee-managed groups that promote the interests of their respective constituencies. Community Engagement Groups bring together individuals with common interests to facilitate efforts that promote education and awareness while helping to advance and sustain a campus culture in which all members of the community feel seen, supported, and essential to our shared vision, mission, and core values.
