For Faculty & Staff

Support the partnership

Faculty and staff help connect students to meaningful service and make district needs visible.

Four ways to get involved

Point students our way
Send students looking for community-engaged work to the Opportunities page, or reach out and we'll help match them to a pathway.
Bring service into your course
Several pathways connect to coursework, independent studies, or practica. If a District 65 placement could enrich a course you teach, let's talk it through.
Flag a district need
Know a District 65 team that could use extra hands? Tell us, and we'll map it to student capacity.
Help fund a placement
Know of funding, fellowships, or assistantships that could sustain this work? We want to hear about it.

To get involved, email kristen-perkins@northwestern.edu. We're happy to find a rhythm that works for you.

Once students are placed, they move through clearances before their first day. Share the full sequence with them.
