Our Service for Social Action Center (SSAC) coordinates service and course-based service-learning activities for members of our campus community.  You will have the opportunity to truly become "men and women for others" through the partnerships of our student clubs, service programs, and academic courses with organizations in Wheeling, Appalachia and across the country.

Throughout the year, the SSAC, in partnership with Campus Ministry work to identify service projects, track participation, and provide support with spiritual reflection and skill development.  We provide these for students, clubs, residence halls, sport teams and programs including the Arrupe Scholars, the Mother Jones House, and First Year Seminar.

The SSAC will also offer training and assistance for faculty who want to incorporate a service-learning component in their courses, applying the skills and theories learned in the classroom to "real world" projects.
