Campus Compact is a national nonprofit organization and the largest and oldest higher education association dedicated to higher education civic and community engagement. Committed to advancing the public purposes of colleges and universities, Campus Compact envisions them as vital agents and architects of a diverse democracy, educating students for responsible citizenship while improving the quality of community life. They provide comprehensive support to member institutions, helping them build the knowledge, skills, and capacity needed to create a just, equitable, and sustainable future. Campus Compact's values of equity, growth mindset, accountability, responsiveness, and transparency guide their work with members.

Founded in 1985, they have since grown along with the field of higher education civic and community engagement, working with state and regional affiliates and directly with campuses across the country. Their initiatives include the Newman Civic Fellowship, AmeriCorps programs, Campus Climate Action Corps, Engaged Scholars Initiative, and various award programs. Campus Compact strives to make civic and community engagement an institutional priority for all of higher education.
