Division of Diversity, Inclusion and Community Engagement
Division of Diversity, Inclusion, and Community Engagement (DICE)
The Division of Diversity, Inclusion, and Community Engagement (DICE) connects Rutgers–Camden to communities beyond our campus. Working with local partners, we support efforts to meet the challenges facing our host city, county, and region through engaged civic learning, volunteerism and service, community-based research, and integrated efforts and partnerships. Civic and community engagement work is done through intentional, mutually beneficial relationships between the DICE division, faculty, students, and community agencies wherein the work and the product of that work is shared; expectations and limitations are outlined through honest communication; and plans for sustainability and closure are well-understood between those that engage.
Furthermore, we are leading efforts to support the forward movement of Rutgers-Camden towards our diversity goals and to build a beloved community through signature initiatives including the Office of Social Justice and Belonging, the Truth Racial Healing and Transformation Center, the Rites of Passage Ceremony, and more.
