UC Santa Barbara has joined the Coastal California Civic Leadership Consortium led by Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. We will offer fellowships to 60 UCSB students annually who will volunteer with over 30 local non-profits, government agencies, K-12 public schools, and community serving programs at higher education campuses.
