Community Partners

 

Thank you in advance for your willingness to accept   students from the CSU Fullerton Aging Studies program at your center! As part of our program, undergraduate and master’s students are required to fulfill a certain number of service-learning or academic internship volunteer hours.

 

In order for our students to volunteer at any organization, the organization   must be registered   with the “Center for Internships and Community Engagement (CICE).” To check to see if your organization already has an agreement with the CICE, please contact the CICE center directly:

 

Center for Internships & Community Engagement

California State University, Fullerton

800 N. State College Blvd., Fullerton CA 92831

Phone: 657-278-3746

Fax: 657-278-1217

Registering with the CICE will allow you to post specific volunteer opportunities, task descriptions, and allow you to cater to students with specific qualifications you desire. Your organization will appear on the CSUF database of internship/volunteer sites so that students can search out your organization and get an idea of what their experience volunteering at your center will be like.
