Webinar: Community Colleges as Cultivators of Civic Life – Oct 30

Posted by Campus Compact on October 20, 2026

Campus Compact is hosting a webinar with New America and Democracy Notes exploring how community colleges are charting the future of American civic engagement.

Join us on Friday, October 30th from 12:00–1:00 pm ET for a webinar and hear from community college administrators, students, and experts who are leading civic efforts in their institutions including Campus Compact’s Vice President of Member & Student Engagement, Natalie Furlett.

Many community colleges were founded to prepare students for both their careers and their civic roles in U.S. democracy. Today, these schools are best known for their essential, open-access education opportunities. But they also act as vital platforms for civic learning, nonpartisan engagement, and innovative participatory experiments across our country.

Hear from leaders at the forefront at this work and explore what their experiences can teach us about building a stronger and more participatory democracy.
