The community outreach
component of the Mindfulness-Based Campus-Community Health Program serves to
demystify mindfulness, illustrating how it is practiced, clarifying its
relationship to health and quality of life, and promoting the availability of
the formal curriculum on campus for those who are interested. The
goal of the community outreach component of the program is to achieve a broad
and accessible distribution of information in the community, and a growing
regional familiarity with the Mindfulness-Based Campus-Community Health Program
at the
University
of
Arkansas
at
Little Rock
.
Presentations on
mindfulness have been given by faculty affiliated with the Mindfulness-Based
Campus-Community Health Program in such places as:
The
Arkansas

churches
K-12

Students who take both

sign up for a service learning internship with Dan Holland to participate in
community outreach activities and help develop community outreach materials.
