Our Projects
CSSC at UVA has teamed up with community partners on existing initiatives as well as created our own independent initiatives in order to help serve those affected by the COVID19 pandemic.
Please explore our community service projects below.

Sin Barreras is a nonprofit organization that supports the Latinx community of Charlottesville. Our CSSC chapter continues to support Sin Barreras through fund raising and a donation drive.
The Information Task Force (Current Project)
We have mobilized to address the lack of information and misinformation around Grounds and within the community. Utilizing both a research and marketing team, we keep students and community members up-to-date and informed about the state of the pandemic.
