Become an ENGAGE Member
The most powerful tool we have as ENGAGE is our network. Our network allows us to carry out, grow, and sustain campaigns. It keeps us connected to communities abroad, to our peers, and to projects throughout the United States. Even for those who are not heavily involved in any ENGAGE-related projects, the listserv, speaker tours, website, the ENGAGE Annual Convergence, regional gatherings, and other ENGAGE events provide ways to stay informed and ensure that members have opportunities to get involved in the future.

Subscribe to the ENGAGE Listserv
ENGAGE's listserv is where the ENGAGE network comes together to share information and updates about ENGAGE Campaigns, Member Projects, ENGAGE-affiliated programs, and global issues. In addition, action alerts and upcoming events are announced on the listserv, and it also serves as a resource for advice and ideas on topics like fundraising, job searching, choosing a study abroad/internship program, and community awareness-raising. Joining the ENGAGE listserv is an excellent first step to connect with ENGAGE.
ENGAGE uses the free Yahoo!Groups service for its listserv.
