Student Leaders for Service is a year-long leadership program that facilitates PSU students’ involvement in both the Portland State and greater Portland communities. Students serve at a community partner site on a weekly basis, supporting the work of the community partner and bringing its mission back to the PSU campus. In addition to serving in a designated volunteer role with their organization, SLS members may serve as a liaison between the community partner site and PSU, raising awareness for the community organization throughout campus and promoting the organization’s volunteer opportunities to PSU students.
SLS members also support engagement with the Student Community Engagement Center through the collaborative creation and facilitation of short Serve Your City projects designed within small cohort groups, as well as helping support large Days of Service, tabling, and other outreach events on the PSU campus. Student Leaders for Service develop their leadership skills and identities through weekly Friday leadership classes each term and work to incorporate their learning into their service with their community partner site and vice versa throughout the year.
