URBANA, Ill. — Community-based participatory research (CBPR) is an approach that connects academic researchers with community partners to inform project development.

Seven faculty members from the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences (ACES) will be promoted on August 16.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — College-bound sophomores, juniors, and seniors at Illinois high schools and new graduates who are on the autism spectrum and interested in attending the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign are encouraged to apply for an upcoming virtual summer camp.
