A brief description of the institution’s participation in an external network of anchor institutions:

In 2019, VCU first joined the Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities and Democracy Collaborative's partnership organization the Anchor Learning Network. Understanding that all communities have different contexts and histories, ALN members explore opportunities for advancing anchor mission strategies grounded in the Anchor Mission Framework that centers community wealth building and explores strategies around our core economic assets of purchasing, hiring, and investment, while gaining an understanding of how to advance racial equity through anchor work. VCU has continued to be a participating member of this learning network since 2019
