Many of us at �ٺ���Ƶ are involved in publicly engaged and impactful programs and opportunities, and the university is asking you to make sure your work is included in the campus database that is used to quantify our outreach and impact.

The offices of Government and Community Relations and Public Scholarship and Engagement, which maintain the , are hoping to have as many entries as possible by April 15, when the latest data is due for submission to the UC Office of the President for its 2022 Accountability Report.

The data also is fed into �ٺ���Ƶ’ , a search engine; an interactive map; and two sets of other maps:

• — a map that allows you to filter for UC activities by campus, congressional and state legislative district, and county and region.
• — PDFs for every state Senate and Assembly district, showing UC activities in each district.
• — PDFs for every California congressional district, showing UC activities in each district.

Additionally, the data contributes to �ٺ���Ƶ’ Carnegie Community Engagement Classification

“We would like your help in updating information we have in the database on programs in your schools, colleges and divisions that are dedicated to public impact,” the database managers said. “During the past year, several programs were archived from the database due to inactivity. This brought the number of programs featured to roughly 230 from more than 2,000.”
