As a result of the interdisciplinary research course I taught during the 2019-2020 academic year, students, community partners, and I created a research collective called "Colectivo Casco Urbano de Cayey." The CCUC collective undertook a various participatory action research projects to understand the needs, concerns, and desired of the urban hub of the Cayey community. The collective realized that there was a need for a physical space to meet and create community, as well as the need to support leadership development in the Cayey town center. Due to the pandemic, the collective created a virtual community center to share our research, provide educational tools for the people of Cayey, Puerto Rico broadly, and the diaspora.
