MDC has been selected by the American Association of Community Colleges ( www.aacc.nche.edu ) as one of eight colleges to receive grants to help college students with disabilities participate in community service and service learning. Through “Project Reach: Service Inclusion for Community College Students,” a three-year national initiative funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service ( http://www.nationalservice.org ), the colleges will create opportunities for students with disabilities to participate in service-learning and learn life skills to help with employment, careers, and personal development. The Center for Community Involvement is in partnership with the ACCESS departments at each campus where the grant is being implemented.
