NATIONAL SERVICE-LEARNING PARTNERSHIP

The National Service-Learning Partnership (NSLP), created through the Learning In Deed initiative, is the only national membership organization bringing together practitioners, administrators, policy-makers, researchers, community leaders, parents and young people to support K-12 service-learning. The Partnership serves as a national leadership hub for more than 2000 individuals and organizations committed to raising the visibility and enhancing the quality of service-learning in schools and communities across the country. For more information on the history of the Partnership, read Taking the Lead.

HOW DOES THE PARTNERSHIP WORK?

The NSLP offers a variety of information services and educational opportunities to keep members connected to the latest ideas and developments in the field. We help this diverse group learn from each other, and acquire the skills and resources they need to become effective service-learning advocates. We also work with educators, youth development specialists, government officials and funders to help them understand the value of high-quality service-learning and how to foster its growth.
