Campus Compact of New York and Pennsylvania:
Allying to Enhance Member value

To ensure that we continue to meet our members’ needs as the higher education landscape evolves, we have made the exciting decision to form a strategic and structural alliance between Pennsylvania and New York Campus Compacts. Having already realized synergies through joint programming and funding, we will be formalizing the alliance by merging into a single nonprofit entity, Campus Compact of New York & Pennsylvania (CCNYPA). 
Our major purpose in forming CCNYPA is to increase value for our members. Launching with a combined membership of 125 colleges and universities, the alliance will expand our reach and increase our appeal for potential funders. Most important, it will allow us to provide resources, programming, and professional development networks that meet the needs of members who often have more in common with their peers across state borders than within them.

Congratulations to all of the 2019 CCNYPA Newman Civic Fellows! For more information about the Fellows' projects, click here.

​The Newman Civic Fellowship recognizes and supports community-committed students who are changemakers and public problem-solvers at Campus Compact member institutions. Fellows are nominated by their president or chancellor on the basis of their potential for public leadership. Through the fellowship, Campus Compact provides students with training and resources that nurture their assets and passions and help them develop strategies for social change. The yearlong program, named for Campus Compact founder Frank Newman, includes virtual learning opportunities and networking as part of a national network of engaged student leaders and an optional in-person convening.
