General Information:

Hey you! Yes, you. Looking for more than a desk job staring at a computer screen all day? Well, you’ve found it! We have a fun work environment and engage in community change on and off campus. Join our team!


Student leadership is central to all CEVC activities. Student Coordinators recruit and support their peers, connect with faculty, and coordinate with local organizations to facilitate meaningful community-based partnerships.

CEVC Coordinators collaborate on one of four teams – Operations, Marketing & Events, Program & Education, or Campus & Community Partnership – to make the magic happen! Through this paid position, you’ll find a supportive environment, develop professional skills, and increase your ability to create a more caring, just world.

Relax, we’re not serious 24/7. If you like to mix your focus and passion with light banter, ridiculous puns, and funny memes, then we're your people! We’re fun, we love the community, and our office space is the ultimate collab zone.


We want YOU to be a part of it! Peep the CEVC website to learn more about us: https://www.jmu.edu/cevc.
