What is the Center of Male Engagement?
Our mission and purpose is to support and enhance the rich learning experiences at HACC for male identifying students to counter historical equity gaps in post-secondary success. The Center for Male Engagement is committed to fostering a sense of engagement, self-advocacy, and success through education, helping students navigate their academic and career journeys while addressing the unique challenges male students face.
The Center for Male Engagement is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m.–4:30 p.m. Students can connect with staff through in-person appointments, Zoom, email, or phone. On-campus appointments are available at the Harrisburg Office by request.
Who can participate?
