Community Relations

Vanderbilt’s Community Relations team fosters the fulfillment of human potential by supporting organizations, convening stakeholders, and working to bring Vanderbilt’s people and resources into the community in service of others.

We partner with local organizations that are making a difference in our neighborhoods and lead community initiatives that foster and support community engagement.
