Committe Charge

The UIC Neighborhoods Initiative is a committee of faculty, staff, representatives from community based organizations, public service providers, schools, clergy and community residents. Members have an interest in fostering communication and collaboration between the medical center and its neighboring communities. The committee meets bi-monthly with meetings co-chaired by a member of the university and community member.
The charge to this committee is as follows:

• Provide an arena to exchange information about 1) UIC involvement in its immediate community and 2) the community's perception of the value and need for such involvement.
• Provide an arena to explore partnership opportunities between university faculty, staff, community representatives and organizations.
• Provide a supportive environment for faculty scholars, researchers and service providers to present research, new programs and solicit input from community representatives.
• To review and evaluate UICMC's involvement in episodic community outreach activities such as community events, focus groups and presentations.
• To provide a forum to address issues of mutual concern.
