Fordham’s Office of Community Affairs builds and nourishes relationships between the University and our local communities. We work alongside local organizations, institutions, and community members to share resources, uplift community priorities, and create opportunities for open dialogue, hands-on support, and collaborative programming both on and off campus. We are proud to work alongside our neighbors, embrace our role as a community partner, and help foster vibrant and thriving communities across New York City and beyond.
