Advancing the Service-Learning Field

The survey below was initially distributed at a session of the 2012 National Service-Learning Conference (http://www.nylc.org/conference) to share input between stakeholders in the service-learning field. Additional feedback and perspectives from across the field will help shape the collective work of advancing the common agenda we have for achieving positive outcomes for youth, education, and community.
