Yale and the City of New Haven have worked in partnership for more than three centuries to build a thriving shared community. Our joint efforts continue today through a wide variety of academic and professional enrichment programs (including many for local public school students and teachers); cultural resources and events that welcome all; and collaborative projects that create economic opportunity and foster civic engagement. As part of Yale’s commitment to its home city, the university also offers direct financial support, job programs, and community investment. 

The stories featured here show some of the many ways in which Yale and New Haven grow stronger together — and mutually support the next generation of students and citizens.
