Community Development Partnership

Your Community is Our Commitment

When organizations within a community make the peoples’ interest a priority, everybody wins! That’s why Brookline College forms partnerships with healthcare organizations, and tribal and government agencies in your community, making higher education more accessible.

Higher levels of education are associated with high levels of societal wellness. This is related to socioeconomic status, which simply means careers providing a certain level of income have benefits to the individual earner and the community as a whole.1 And the societal benefits of education levels are even greater than the personal benefits.2 Interestingly, this relationship between education and health is also cyclical; improvements self-perpetuate for continued betterment, and the inverse is also true.3
