About Community-Based Research for Engagement and Education

MISSION: The mission of the Community-Based Research for Engagement and Education (CBREE) Group is to conduct collaborative, field-initiated research on adult and community learning and literacy informed by social, economic, political, human resource, and social-environmental issues. CBREE also recognizes as part of its mission the importance of combining expertise and capacities of multiple organizations, disciplines, and professions in addressing complex community problems especially in disenfranchised and vulnerable neighborhoods. CBREE seeks to identify plausible findings to guide adult and community education and literacy programs leading to increased equity regarding family and community health and vibrancy. CBREE works with individuals, communities, and businesses to identify the various factors that adults describe as best supporting their learning experiences. Conversely, CBREE also seeks to identify the aspects that adults describe as an obstacle to learning. Through collaborative and credible research, CBREE works with individuals, communities, and organizations to identify best instructional development and practices.
