  • Community and Economic Engagement Summit, Theme: Pathways to Economic Recovery North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University

    COVID impacts on communities of color have been disparate. Disproportionately negative impacts have exacerbated disparities in healthcare, financial equity, employment and access to services. North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University's initiative focuses on inclusive recovery by using our newly developed model of Innovation and Economic Engagement (Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities). The summit is an event and a partnership process to support engagement opportunities and strengthen existing partnerships for economic development.
