Abstract
The purpose of this symposium is to explore multiple principles and practices of community engagement for the betterment of children, families, and community members in urban contexts. Five leading institutions share experiences and strategies about sustainable relationships with community partners. With the use of complex theory, participants present lived experiences of walking up to the edge of community and civic engagement within their shared communities. Participants present and discuss cutting-edge issues in community engagement, including family involvement, institutional power operations, and educational responsibilities in shared urban communities. This symposium emphasizes the unique contexts of how different universities play a unique yet crucial role as community partners in supporting the growth and development of students in underserved urban communities.
