Government and Community Relations at GW
All great cities have great universities. As a long-standing anchor insitution in the District of Columbia, the George Washington University is invested in the success and vitality of the Washington metropolitan area. We actively share our resources and cultivate collaboration with the communities surrounding all three of our campuses, enhancing our collective quality of life and advancing our common goals.
The George Washington University community lends a wealth of intellectual capital to policymaking, whether it occurs in the White House, the U.S. Congress, the D.C. and Virginia governments, the courts or the hundreds of agencies, associations, foundations and think tanks throughout the region. GW infuses Washington’s government-related institutions with its research, experience, and an army of dedicated interns.

Serving D.C., the Nation, and the World!
Dear Members of Our D.C. Community,
I am pleased to share with you the George Washington University’s fourth annual civic engagement report. For the past four years, this publication has proudly showcased GW’s engagement activities and demonstrated the depth and breadth of the university’s contributions to the city we call home. This year, in addition to outlining our work across the District, we’ve included several inspiring stories of GW Revolutionaries who are tackling health disparities, improving community safety, and fostering innovation, education, and entrepreneurship beyond the eight wards of our city. These select stories exemplify our GW community’s remarkable impact locally, nationally, and globally.
These efforts stem from GW’s robust partnerships across the District’s eight wards, founded on a shared commitment to serving our communities. Looking forward, we remain dedicated to strengthening and scaling these invaluable relationships while fostering new collaborations to solve our most pressing challenges. Together, we will continue to drive positive change, making Washington, D.C., an even better place to live, work, and learn.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership.
Warm Regards,
Ellen M. Granberg, President
