The Center invites participation from faculty, staff, students at ACC, and from the communities served by the college. In addition, the Center seeks to establish working partnerships with other institutions and agencies, including: area decision-makers and opinion leaders (e.g., elected and appointed officials, business executives, religious and community leaders); public and private staff leaders (e.g., city managers, school superintendents and hospital administrators); and Texas Campus Compact and other community-based organizations.

We recognize that these strategic partnerships give us the opportunity to expose ACC students to a diverse cross-section of public policy and political processes while giving back something to the Central Texas leaders of today. If you, or your organization, have an idea for a creative way to partner with the CPPPS and our students, please don’t hesitate to contact our director, Peck Young.
