BEFORE YOU START: Read the New Edition of the JHS Student Guide

We have made some major changes that go into effect today (August 22). To understand the changes, read the JHS Student Guide: Fall 2024 - Spring 2025, Edition 2 (08-22-24). For your convenience, differences between Edition 1 and Edition 2 are highlighted in yellow like this.

STEP 1: Find & Schedule Qualified Community Service Experiences

Read the complete updated instructions in the "Road Map - STEP 1" section of the new edition of the JHS Student Guide.

1. Read the JHS Newsletter email each Wednesday for information about pre-qualified service experiences for which you can sign up (see the "Pre-Qualified Service Experiences" section above). However, do not rely on our newsletter as the only place you look for community service experiences!
2. Contact pre-qualified organizations to schedule community service hours that fit in to your schedule. The JHS Community Service Experiences Catalog: Fall 2024 - Spring 2025, Edition 2 (08-22-24) contains updated listings of pre-qualified and excluded organizations/experiences.
3. You are not limited to pre-qualified experiences and organizations. However, completing community service activities with organizations that are not pre-qualified may result in your service hours being denied (not receiving final approval), regardless of approval in past semesters.

• To be approved, your service must meet the current SIUE definition of community service as described in the JHS Student Guide: Fall 2024 - Spring 2025, Edition 2 (08-22-24).
• The JHS Community Service Experiences Catalog: Fall 2024 - Spring 2025, Edition 2 (08-22-24) contains updated listings of pre-qualified and excluded organizations/experiences.
• For questions regarding qualified organizations and experiences, please contact Ashley Jones in the Kimmel Belonging and Engagement Hub (email ajonebf@siue.edu or call 618-650-3179).
