The Center for Community & Cultural Engagement (CCE) is dedicated to enriching and supporting the entire campus community. We provide comprehensive cultural engagement and educational services to empower students, faculty, and staff, fostering an all-inclusive and vibrant campus environment. CCE’s mission is to support student well-being and success by providing pathways to vibrant community and culture through education and celebration of unique heritage, experiences, and practices. We’re excited to connect with students and explore ways to enhance campus community engagement. Our goal is to better understand student needs and help everyone feel a strong sense of belonging at the University of Utah!
CCE Celebrations are hosted regularly in celebration of various heritage/history months and weeks. CCE actively engages with local and campus communities to facilitate meaningful collaborations and imperatives. By partnering with community organizations, cultural groups, and educational institutions, we strive to address social issues, celebrate cultural heritage, and promote fairness and participation.
CCE provides vital events and programming that support the holistic development of students and the enrichment of campus life. By offering programs that cultivate a sense of belonging and community, the Center empowers individuals to explore different cultural perspectives, develop social skills, and engage in collaborative projects that address community needs.
