Outreach


The University of Cincinnati has established UC|21, a strategic plan which has redefined our role as an urban university. A key goal in our plan is to establish and nurture relationships and partnerships, with our colleagues within the university and with local and global communities. In CECH, our outreach includes alliances with other universities, with school districts, and with other community organizations. We work together, drawing from each other’s strengths, for the benefits of the children and families where we work and live.
