The Goal of the Center for Service Learning is to assist Regis students and faculty in learning about inequitable systems and structures in society, while helping them to gain the tools through which to challenge and change them.

In addition to facilitating this process through Service Learning courses, the Center for Service Learning offers the following programs:
