Funded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the Engaged Institutions project seeks to embed an ethos of “community engagement” in four major public universities: the University of Texas, El Paso; the University of California, Santa Cruz; the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities; and Pennsylvania State University. While the primary purpose of the site is to promote information sharing among program participants, the site also aims to inform a broader public audience. PolicyLink, based in Oakland, California, is the developer and maintainer of the site.
