What about the community?
Within the College of Education, there is a synergy between teaching, research and service that is embodied in the work of our research centers and clinics. The Department of Counseling and Educational Psychology supports Counseling Clinics and Research Services, a headquarters for faculty off-campus clinics and research activities comprised of the 7Cs Clinic and Addiction/Mental Health Research Services, Behavior Clinic, and Culture & Well-Being Lab.
The Hartman Literacy and Learning Center is home to the Family Literacy Project, a program through which teachers in training tutor inner-city Milwaukee children. Meanwhile, the Institute for the Transformation of Learning supports education options that transform learning for children while empowering families, particularly low-income ones, to choose the best options for their children.
