Community Service Learning is the backbone of the CLI programs. The CLI strives to engage all students, faculty and staff in voluntary service and is constantly looking for the best fit non-profit organizations to engage with in service.
The service organizations we work with on a regular basis
are:
• 9 Health Fair
• American Heart Association
• Ashley Elementary
• Bluff Lake Nature Center
• Boys and Girls Clubs
• Brent’s Place
• CERT Training
• ELS Language Center

We would also like to recognize those service organizations that continue to build a relationship with Johnson & Wales University. A few years ago, we decided to look at our service site relationships and at how important they are to us. So we looked at student evaluations and our continuous relationships with sites including what we are able to partner with them on above and beyond the Service Learning Program. Therefore, the following organizations have gone from being a service site to being a recognized Service Partner of Johnson & Wales University.
