Abstract

This study grew out of a conversation among service-learning practitioners at a retreat hosted by California Campus Compact. "What do our community partners think about service-learning? We think they are benefiting. but how do we know? Why do they choose to partner with us in the first place?" While reciprocity of benefits for the conmmunity has long been an intended hallmark of service-learning practice (c.g .. Ferrari & Chapman, 1999; Honnet & Poulsen, 1989, Sigmon, 1979, Waterman, 1997), service-learning practitioners often do not know if, when and how this is achieved.
