A brief description of how the institution identifies and engages community stakeholders, including any vulnerable or underrepresented groups:

The Texas Planning Atlas, which is currently in the process of expanding from the Texas Coast to the entire state is an internet-based spatial decision support system that allows users to identify and visualize critical issues related to numerous dimensions within a community including socially vulnerable populations. This tool displays demographic information at the block group level from Census data to determine the areas within the community that may need support and resources. The Texas Target Communities (TTC) program at Texas A&M uses the Atlas to identify areas to focus and engage. TTC then seeks out community leaders within these neighborhoods to address issues that are pertinent to them.
