Community Relations Framework

  

 

 

The University of Houston is committed to engaging with communities through meaningful partnerships to foster mutually enriching exchanges of knowledge and resources. We aim to cultivate relationships grounded in reciprocity, spanning local, regional, national, and global contexts. In collaboration with our community engagement partners, we build strength through mutually beneficial relationships that contribute to the public good, build knowledge, and effect change.
