The Community Engaged Partnership Development Fund is a program specifically designed to provide support for the development of partnerships between UM faculty, staff, or students collaborating with a community beyond higher education. Communities are not limited to geographically defined areas. Communities also include individuals or groups connected by shared interests or practices, situational similarities, or even culture and beliefs.

Faculty, staff, and students from the Oxford, regional, and UMMC campuses are eligible for this fund.
