Marquette's service programs help thousands of men, women, children and families throughout the Greater Milwaukee area. The university's outreach efforts could not be realized without strong relationships with community-based agencies and nonprofit organizations.

The most extensive of these partnerships exist through the Service Learning Program and the Center for Community Service, which work with more than 170 schools and agencies.
