Campus Action Planning (CAP) is a national initiative led by Campus Compact to help colleges and universities embed civic and community engagement as an institutional priority. The program provides a comprehensive framework and technical support for campuses to align resources, foster collaboration among professionals, and leverage both campus and community assets. Through convenings, learning communities, and a structured cohort model, CAP aims to build institutional capacity for civic engagement, promote collective flourishing, and contribute to a just democracy. The initiative offers guidance on action planning, including timelines, team formation, and operationalization, enabling institutions to address complex social challenges and fully realize their public mission.
