Organization Information
Mission Statement
Florida Community Innovation empowers young innovators to build social services technologies for their communities. We have pioneered a research-into-practice model that is grounded in university-level experiential learning for social good, with a focus on community listening. In plain language, we mentor college students as they learn by doing -- engaging in research that they then act on with community partners, by building technology and running programs to address social problems.
Description
We work with universities and individual students to create tailored experiential learning that addresses real problems. Every student we work with, whether they are part of our main internship program or doing FCI work in a capstone course, gets a personalized experience to make sure they are achieving educational goals in the fields of tech, research, and community engagement.
We proactively bring in volunteer mentors and community members, especially social workers, to co-design and deploy the projects with the students.
