A brief description of the institution’s formal community partnership to advance sustainability:

With funding from California Volunteers and other state offices, CSULB has partnered with Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, Allan Hancock College, and Cuesta College to develop and provide paid internship opportunities and programs at each of the respective campuses. At CSULB, our College Corps @ the Beach program works with campus and community partners to place students in two-semester-long paid internships. Interns’ placements focus on key issues related to climate action and environmental justice, food insecurity, and K-12 education with an emphasis on climate literacy. The goal is to create debt-free pathways to college while engaging students in solving problems in their communities. The College Corps @ the Beach program is fully supported by paid campus staff.
