DWIGHT Hall at Yale

DWIGHT Hall at yale's mission is to nurture and inspire students as leaders of social reform and to advance justice and service in new haven and around the world. DWIGHT Hall supports students as they seek meaningful service opportunities, develops the capacity for civic leadership among the student body, and creates a collaborative space where societal issues are discussed, analyzed, and acted upon in concrete ways. With a history dating to 1886, the organization currently supports service for 85 student-led member groups that engage more than 4,037 yale students each year. DWIGHT Hall enables students to design, manage, evaluate, and adapt responses to a wide range of local, national, and global needs, then supports those efforts through training, peer mentorship, and reflection opportunities. This culture of action and reflection encourages student leaders to share best practices, learn from successful leaders, and collaborate for deeper impact. DWIGHT Hall at yale also seeks to further the core mission and values of the organization through experimental learning opportunities. Undergraduate students, graduate and professional school students, alumni, yale club members, faculty, new haven community members, and other friends participate in DWIGHT Hall programs. A more extensive and intergenerational community enhances the experience of undergraduates while leveraging increased volunteerism and activity.
