Communiversity Youth Program connects the vision of Dr. Stone and the work and resources of the Sonja Haynes Stone Center for Black Culture and History with the University campus and local and state communities through service-learning, community-building, outreach, leadership and interpersonal skills development. Communiversity fulfills an important part of the Stone Center’s mission of examining the role of culture in social change and community development by helping to improve student performance through education and practical experience. These components educate, empower and expose participating community youth to various aspects of African and African American culture and history, along with other cultural traditions, through alternative teaching methods. Working in cooperation with other University departments, Communiversity also sponsors other community outreach programs that assist in building and/or rebuilding key economic and social resources.
