Service Speaks is an annual conference that highlights the service learning and community engagement work of DePaul students and community partners. The conference began in 2008 and celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2018. Due to COVID-19, this year the the conference shifted to online format offering profiles of engaged students, community partners and faculty.
Each year, over 3800 DePaul students help to build the capacity of our community partners through community-based service learning courses, internships, and community-based research. These opportunities result in deep learning and significant contributions to the community.
"I’m doing this for my community and it’s so close to me." Mahum Inaba Ahmed, CSS Scholar
