Community Engagement

Since its inception, the Science Participation Resource Center (SPRC) has maintained strong connections with community organizations working to address disparities in many areas like education, equity, access to services, etc.

We have maintained a very active and involved Community Advisory Board (CAB). The CAB at SPRC has had a direct impact in the advancement of SPRC’s mission. Our CAB partners have contributed in a variety of ways from partnering with research teams, offering advice and consultation, to directly contributing to grant development.

Our CAB partners include:

• African Community Education (ACE)

• AME Zion Church

• All of Us

• Center for Health Impact (CHI)

• Elder Services of Worcester Area, Inc.

• India Society of Worcester

• Latino Clergy Alliance

• Massachusetts Council on Aging

• Spanish American Center of Leominster, MA

• United Way of Central MA

• Worcester Black Clergy Alliance (WBCA)

• YMCA of Central Massachusetts
