About Us

---

At Tarleton State University, the Community Connections department is dedicated to strengthening the bond between the university and the communities we serve. Through meaningful partnerships with key stakeholders across all Tarleton campuses, we foster collaboration, engagement, and shared growth.

Working hand-in-hand with University Marketing, we ensure our internal and external communications reflect an asset-based approach—highlighting the strengths of our people, our programs, and our partnerships. Together, we maximize resources and create new opportunities for university-wide success.

Our efforts focus on:

• Enhancing relationships with Tarleton’s valued donors and supporters
• Serving as the primary contact for civic and community partnerships
• Collaborating across campuses to expand civic engagement and connection opportunities

By connecting campus and community, we’re building a stronger, more vibrant future—together.
