Brown & Community
At the core of the Brown story is the story of Providence and Rhode Island.
Across education, research, service, community engagement and the economy, Brown is deeply intertwined with the city we call home.

For many Brown employees, the work they do at the University is more than a job. It’s an opportunity to learn from and collaborate with similarly driven individuals and experts in their fields. It's being part of a community that values and supports learning, helping individuals develop professionally, take on new challenges and have an impact locally and globally.
Brown is committed to meaningful community engagement with the greater Providence region. Our office facilitates community partnerships, addresses inquiries from community members, and strengthens relationships with neighbors, non-profit organizations, schools, civic organizations and businesses.
The Swearer Center’s work is intended to catalyze student learning and commitment to lifelong civic engagement and responsibility in order to advance social justice. The Center is an important agent of Brown’s intent and obligation to ensure that the University makes meaningful, positive, and sustainable contributions to the public good.
