On behalf of Syed M. Ahmed, MD, MPH, DrPH, Associate Provost and Senior Associate Dean for Community Engagement:

Across the world and here in Wisconsin, the COVID-19 pandemic continues, and we are currently seeing rising numbers throughout Wisconsin. Though we are unable to gather in person during this unprecedented time, we are excited to try something new and recreate our poster session virtually. We hope that this new platform provides an opportunity to explore and look at the traditional poster session through a new lens. With the many challenges faced by our healthcare system and by our communities alike during this time, we want to encourage people to innovate not only by doing community engagement, but also in how we engage each other, for the overall health and benefit of the communities we serve.

Community engagement, one of the four missions at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW), is richly embedded in our programs and throughout our centers, institutes, and departments. The Office of Community Engagement is proud of the many community engaged works happening across MCW campuses and in Wisconsin communities, as well as the expertise and commitment to the practice of community engagement by faculty, staff, students, and community partners. We are fostering future leaders in community engagement by leveraging the mentorship, experience, insights, and efforts offered by these practitioners. It is only through genuine partnerships, and mutual, longstanding commitments to the communities we serve, that MCW can impact lives and play a role in improving health in Wisconsin.

Thank you for contributing to leadership and excellence in community engagement and promoting the health of the community through education, research, and patient care!
