Community Outreach and Engagement
The Office of Community Outreach and Engagement is committed to fulfilling our mission of improving the health and well-being of the people and institutions of Ohio, the nation and the world. We accomplish this goal by connecting our faculty members, staff and students with eager community partners such as patient groups, healthcare providers, professional organizations, community agencies and schools. We make it a point to focus on providing members of the college with project development skills and tools, financial assistance and support to future and active community-focused projects. Through our efforts, we support the College of Nursing’s ability to engage in unique teaching, research, learning and service activities that directly affect our community’s health.
If you are interested in working with us, please email Ladun at olateru-olagbegi.2@osu.edu.
Message from the Director
Born and raised in Ohio, I am thrilled to be back after living and working in Chicago, IL for the past 25 years. My research, teaching and service is community based and focuses on mental health promotion, promoting positive parent-child relationships and preventing behavior problems of young children living in poverty. In my role as the Director of the Office of Community Outreach and Engagement I am excited to support and expand upon the amazing work happening across our college to promote health and well-being in our community.
